When[D] boyhoods fire was in my blood I[G] read of [A]ancient[D] free men

For[D] Greece and Rome who bravly stood three [G]hundred[Em] men and[A] three men

And[A] then I prayed I yet might see our[G] fetters [D]rent in twain

And[G] Ireland long a provience[A] be a[D] nation[A] once[D] again

[Chorus]

A[D] nation once a[G]gain , a [Em]nation once a[A]gain

And[D] Ireland long a[G] provence[A] be a[D] nation [A]once a[D]gain

And from that time through wildest woe that hope has shone a far light

Nor could love's brightest summer glow outshine that solemn starlight

It seemed to watch above my head in forum fields and fame

It's angle voice sang 'round my head a nation once again

It whispered to that freedoms ark and service high and holy

Would be frefound my feelings dark and passions vain or lowly

For freedom comes from Gods right hand and needs a godly train

And righteous men must make our land a nation once again

So as I grew from boy to man I bent me to that bidding

My spirit of each selfish plan and cruel passion ridding

For thus I hope some day to aid oh can such hope be vain

When my dear country should be made a nation once again

A Nation Once Again Lyrics

When boyhoods fire was in my blood I read of ancient free men

For Greece and Rome who bravly stood three hundred men and three men

An then I prayed I yet might see our fetters rent in twain

And[G] Ireland long a provience be a nation once again

[Chorus]

A nation once again , a nation once again

And Ireland long a provence be a nation once again

And from that time through wildest woe that hope has shone a far light

Nor could love's brightest summer glow outshine that solemn starlight

It seemed to watch above my head in forum fields and fame

It's angle voice sang 'round my head a nation once again

It whispered to that freedoms ark and service high and holy

Would be frefound my feelings dark and passions vain or lowly

For freedom comes from Gods right hand and needs a godly train

And righteous men must make our land a nation once again

So as I grew from boy to man I bent me to that bidding

My spirit of each selfish plan and cruel passion ridding

For thus I hope some day to aid oh can such hope be vain

When my dear country should be made a nation once again
