Is it the same song that's in this thread (click), William, or is the Wolfe Tones song different?

Come listen all me true men to my simple rhyme
For it tells of a young man cut off in his prime
A soldier and a statesman who laid down the law, and,
To die by the roaside in lone Beal na Bla
When barely sixteen to England crossed o'er
For to work as a boy in a government store
But the Volunteers call he could not disobey
So he came back to Dublin to join in the fray

-Chorus-
At Easter nineteen sixteen when Pearse called them out
The men from the Dublin battalion roved out
And in the post office they nobley did show
How a handful of heros could outfight the foe.



Perhaps this one?

Wolfe Tones, "A Sense of Freedom," track 8.
Duplication on many of their cds, but this one seems to be available only this cd among the American pressings.
This unique group has been together for 40 years.
