dominic behan - extract from pearse's court martial speech lyrics
Loading...
when i was a child of ten i went down on my bare knees by my bedside one night and promised god that i should devote my life to an effort to free my country. i have kept that promise. first among all earthly things, as a boy and as a man i have worked for irish freedom. i have helped to organise, to arm, to train, and to discipline my fellow countrymen to the sole end that, when the time came, they might fight for irish freedom. the time, as it seemed to me, did come, and we went into the fight. i am glad we did. we seem to have lost. to refuse to fight would have been to lose; to fight is to win. we have kept faith with the past, and handed on a tradition to the future
