The Valley of Knockanure - Irish Folk
The Valley of Knockanure, written by Brian McMahon in the 1940s about an incident that took place during the war of independence in Gortaglanna Co.Kerry.
You may sing and speak of old Easter week
And the heroes of Ninety-Eight
Of the Fenian men who roamed the glen
In victory or defeat
Their names on history's page are told

Not a song was sung of our darling sons
In the Valley of Knockanure

They were young and in their prime
They rambled to a lonely spot
Where the Black and Tans did hide
The Republic bold they did uphold
Tho' outlawed on the moor
And side by side they fought and died
In the Valley of Knockanure
It was on a neighbouring...
