A Nation Once Again piano leadsheet with chords

When boyhood's fire was in my blood,

I read of ancient freemen;

for Greece and

Rome who bravely stood, three hundred men and three men.

And there I prayed I yet might see our fetters rent in twain,

and Ireland, long a province, be a nation once again.

A nation once again, a nation once again.

May Ireland, long a province, be a nation once again.

And from that time, through wildest woe,

that hope has shown a far light;

nor could love's brightest summer glow outshine that solemn starlight.

It seemed to watch above my head in forum field and fane;

its angel voice sang 'round my bed,

"A nation once again."

A nation once again, a nation once again.

May Ireland, long a province, be a nation once again.

It gain.
