GUEST,paulinwexford ADD: The Ferns Exile (Mick Galvin??) (10) Origins: Who wrote 'The Ferns Exile'? 15 Sep 08

Hi,

A friend of mine is recording 'The Ferns Exile', and was told it was composed by Mick Galvin (from Kerry?)?

Is this true?

First line is:

'Bitter autumn breezes blow along the pier at port San Louis'

Chorus is:

'Put your feeble hand in mine, let me take you back in time,
To the spring of '98 when freedom called,
When as a youth with firey pride along with Kelly and McBride,
You marched to Tubberneering side by side.'

Thanks,

Paul.
