Bold Fenian Men

Testo
Twas down by the glenside, I met an old woman
She was picking young nettles and she scarce saw me coming
I listened awhile to the song she was humming
Glory O, Glory O, to the bold Fenian men

'Tis fifty long years since I saw the moon beaming
On strong manly forms and their eyes with hope gleaming
I see them again, now, in all my daydreaming
Glory O, Glory O, to the bold Fenian men

I passed on my way, God be praised that I met her
Be life long or short, sure I'll never forget her
We may have brave men, but we'll never have better
Glory O, Glory O, to the bold Fenian men.

@Hoosierhorsesense There was no Fenian uprising in Canada. They came from the States to invade Canada. Poorly organized and were thrown back by Canadian militia. The U.S.A. took a dim view of their actions not wanting an international incident.
