lirik lagu frank harte - ballyshannon lane

[verse 1]
in eighteen and six as the moon did fix
its beams o’er scullabogue
while the planet mars and the twinkling stars
denoted where each rogue
of saxon birth had bit the earth
where cromwell’s crew were slain
whenthe yeomen they fled and left their dead
in ballyshannon lane

[verse 2]
i paused for a while beside the stile
near the churchyard of courthayle
onе night in june as the silvery moon
o’еr each rebel’s grave did a~sail
scenes of ’98 which i now relate
flashed through my youthful brain
i prayed for the dead and through raheen fled
to ballyshannon lane

[verse 3]
i passed by moore’s and the forge door
where evoy forged a pike
the night being fine neither mist nor wind
blew over hill or dyk~
by jack keating’s gat where i chanced to wait
my thoughts drove me insane
for the yeomen crew a youth they slew
in ballyshannon lane
[verse 4]
my mother too, god rest her soul
she showed me where he fell
out across the land where doyle’s house stands
he fought so brave and well
out beyond kehoe’s he faced his foes
and manys a hessian was slain
till six bayonets pressed through his fine young breast
in ballyshannon lane

[verse 5]
in keating’s lawn at the early dawn
when the barn was all in flames
i grieved to tell, my three uncless fell
that’s martin, john and james
and as my aunt kate stood at the gate
herself and child were slain
oh my t~~th still cringe to have revenge
for ballyshannon lane

[verse 6]
this was the song that my mother sang
into my youthful ears
as down her cheeks for weeks and weeks
coursed the hot and scalding tears
my brother mike forged me a pike
to take the hills again
and in ireland’s need i am here to bleed
in ballyshannon lane
