"First They Came..." by Martin Niemöller...

First they came for the communists, and I didn't speak because I wasn't a communist.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak because I wasn't a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I didn't speak because I wasn't a Jew.

Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak because I was Protestant.

Then they came for me and there was no one left to speak out for me.

Unless you have your head stuck in the sand...

I saw Pól MacAdaim perform this song at a Birthday celebration for the late Paul Wolf in the city of Münster, Germany. Paul Wolf was a life long Anti-Fascist and a teenage victim of the nazi sterilization programme. It was a really moving performance and I'll never forget the haunting atmostphere when it was sung. Well done Christy Moore. Well done Pól Mac Adaim.

Our family is very proud that Christy dedicated this song to my mother Phylis McGhee on the album Graffiti Tongue. Mammy devoted her life fighting for social justice and spoke for many who did not have the courage to speak. Her memory lives on in "Yellow Triangle" thank you Christy.  Richard Lanigan
