Synopsis
Excerpt from Hero Lays
A Song of Freedom
In Cavan of little lakes,
As I was walking with the wind,
And no one seen beside me there,
There came a song into my mind:
It came as if the whispered voice
Of one, but none of human kind,
Who walked with me in Cavan then,
And he invisible as wind.
On Urns of Inish-Owen,
As I went up the mountain side,
The brook that came leaping down
Cried to me - for joy it cried;
And when from of the summit far
I looked o'er land and water wide,
I was more joyous than the brook
That met me on the mountain side.
To Ara of Connacht's isles,
As I went sailing o'er the sea,
The wind's word, the brook's word,
The wave's word, was plain to me -
"As we are, though she is not
As we are, shall Banba be -
There is no King can rule the wind,
There is no fetter for the sea."
