in bodentown’s churchyard lyrics
[verse 1]
in bodenstown churchyard there is a green grave
and wildly around it the wintery winds rave;
small shelter i ween are the ruined walls there
when the storm sweeps down on the plains of kildare

[verse 2]
once i lay on that sod it lies over wolfe tone
and i thought how he perished in prison alone
his friends unavenged and his country unfreed
“oh, bitter,” i thought, “is the patriots meed

[verse 3]
“for in him the heart of a woman combined
with heroic spirit and a governing mind
a martyr for ireland, his grave has no stone
his name sheldom namеd, and his virtues unknown.”

[verse 4]
i was woke from my dream by thе voices and tread
of a band who came into the home of the dead;
they carried no corpse, and they carried no stone
and they stopped when they came to the grave of wolfe tone

[verse 5]
but the old man who saw i was mourning there said
“we come sir to weep where wolfetone is laid
and we’re going to build him a monument too
a plain one yet fit for the simple and true”
[verse 6]
my heart overflowed and i clasped his old hand
i blessed him and blessed everyone in his band
how sweet tis to see that such faith can remain
to the cause of the man, so long vanquished and slain

[verse 7]
in bodenstown churchyard there is a green grave
and wildly around it the wintery winds rave;
far better they soothed him the ruin and the gloom
until ireland, a nation, might build him a tomb
