Felipa Lyr Req: James Connolly (Wolfe Tones) (29) RE: Lyr Req: James Connolly (Wolfe Tones) 08 May 22


The poem posted by PaddyMac on 22 Sept. 1999 was written by Liam Mac Gabhann I think the title is simply "Connolly"

Mac Gabhann "wrote in 'Rags, Robes and Rebels' that it was based on reading comments made by the son of a Welsh miner who was part of Connolly's firing squad who later asked Connolly's relatives to forgive him." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liam_MacGabhann

Lyrics from a booklet of James Connolly's own compositions are posted at Mudcat thread: https://mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=16522
