Thread Name: ADD: Song about Padraig Pearse
Subject: Lyr Req: Song about Padraig Pearse
I learned a song about Padraig Pearse a while ago and cant remember some of the words now, I dont know the name of the song but the first lines are

I've sang many a song, Told many a story
of lovers so gentle and battles so fierce,
But as God be my guide I will sing of the glory,
And the goodness and the grandeur of bold Padraig Pearse.

All the virtues and graces that god ever granted
To mortals on earth there in he were combined.
True honour and faith in his soul were implanted.
He was fearless in battle yet gentle and kind

Does anyone know the rest of the words and know the title of the song

regards J
