lirik lagu frank harte - rights of man

[verse 1]
i speak with candour one night in slumber
my mind did wander near to athlone
to the centre station of this irish nation
where a congregation unto me was shown
beyond my countin’ upon a mountain
near to a fountain that clearly ran
the earth did tremble, i will not dissemble
as they assembled for the rights of man

[verse 2]
all clad in green i thought i seen
a virtuous queen who was grave and old
saying, “children dear, oh do not fear
but come and hear what i will unfold;
this fertile country for seven centuries
since a strongbow’s entry unto our land
has been kept under by foes unnumbered
and a~robber and plundered of the rights of man.”

[verse 3]
“my cause you chided, and so derided
when all divided alas you know
and in disorder ’round erin’s border
strife, a~grief and murder has laid you low
let each communion detest disunion
and in love and union join hand in hand
and believe in gráinne and proud britannia
no more rob you of the rights of man.”
[verse 4]
through the azure sky i then did spy
a man to fly and he fast descends
straightaway comes down upon the ground
where erin ’round had her bosom friends
his dazzling mitre and cross was a~brighter
than the stars by night or the midday sun
and in accents rare i do declare
he prayed success unto the rights of man

[verse 5]
then the population and congregation
in exultation agreed to part
they shook hands like brothers and kissed each other
while a friendships smothered each irish heart
they separated, exhilarated
and animated at what went on
and as day was breaking poor shiels awaking
cried still, “be true unto the rights of man!”
