	[ti:The Foggy Dew]
	[ar: The Chieftains]
[00:12.67]	the foggy dew
[00:15.02]	As down the glen one Easter morn
[00:24.68]	To a city fair rode I,
[00:33.38]	There armed lines of marching men
[00:42.29]	In squadrons passed me by.
[00:49.79]	No pipe did hum,no battle drum
[00:58.24]	Did sound its loud tattoo
[01:09.20]	But the Angelus'bells o'er the Liffey swells
[01:20.05]	Rang out in the foggy dew.
[01:33.81]	Right proudly high in Dublin town
[01:39.16]	Hung they out a flag of war.
[01:44.37]	'Twas better to die 'neath an Irish sky
[01:49.97]	Than at Suvla or Sud el Bar.
[01:55.32]	And from the plains of Royal Meath
[02:00.87]	Strong men came hurrying through;
[02:06.12]	While Brittania's Huns with their long-range guns
[02:11.25]	Sailed in through the foggy dew.※※※※※※※※※※
[02:27.66]	The bravest fell,and the requiem bell
[02:33.06]	Rang mournfully and clear
[02:38.21]	For those who died that Easter-tide
[02:43.66]	In the springing of the year.
[02:48.86]	While the world did gaze with deep amaze
[02:54.21]	At those fearless men but few
[02:59.32]	Who bore the fight that freedom's light
[03:05.33]	Might shine through the foggy dew.※※※※※
[03:30.59]	And back through the glen I rode again
[03:45.04]	And my heart with grief was sore
[03:54.65]	For I parted then with valiant men
[04:04.20]	Whom I never shall see more
[04:12.50]	But to and fro
[04:17.26]	In my dreams I go
[04:21.21]	And I kneel and pray for you
[04:31.27]	For slavery fled
[04:37.97]	Oh,glorious dead
[04:46.82]	When you fell in the foggy dew
