Luke Kelly – A Nation Once Again lyrics

When boyhood's fire was in my blood
I read of ancient freemen,
Of Greece and Rome who bravely stood,
Three hundred men and three men;
And then I thought I yet might see
Our fetters rent in twain,
And Ireland, long a province, be
A Nation once again!

Chorus:
A nation once again,
A nation once again,
And Ireland, long a province, be
A Nation once again!
