Greetings from Finland! Here's a verse from a Finnish song inspired by Ireland: "They said that in art lies the strength of a small nation. A small nation can't survive except with heart and spirit They sang and created a terrifyingly good swing."
I love Irish rebellion songs because they always, at least at some point, make fun of the British. There are many that are solely for that purpose but just about all manage to throw in some sarcasm to make fun of em
I had to learn about William Butler Yeat's poem "Easter 1916" in university, and some of the names in his poem, I see here in this video! Ever since I studied about the Irish Revolution through the poem, I've had a deep sense of appreciation for the bravery of the Irish. Their rebel songs increase this appreciation and W.B Yeats is my favourite poet of all time. Love from India to the Irish; we were both colonised by the same power and we are free!
@@fabiogrossodived Love IR from HU. Ulster must join the IR ! And the IR has to return to Her's original gael language ! Although is official language in Ireland, only 20 - 30 % of the inhabitants speak it. HU❤IR
The Irish, too, know how it feels to have powerful neighbours that can't keep their hands to themselves... 🇮🇪❤️🇵🇱 Lived in Ireland for two months and I adore the Irish people, and their magnificent pubs too!
Lyrics: As down the glen one Easter morn' to a city fair rode I There armed lines of marching men In squadrons passed me by no pipes did hum, no battle drum did sound it's loud tattoo. But the Angelus bell o'er the Liffey swell rang out in the foggy dew. Right proudly high over Dublin town They flung out the flag of war 'T was better to die, 'neath an Irish sky Than at Suvla or Sud-el-bar And from the plains of Royal Meath Strong men came hurrying through While Brittania's Huns With their big great guns sailed into the foggy dew. Oh the night went black, and the rifles' crack made perfidious Albion reel 'Mid the leaden rain, seven tongues of flame did shine o'er the line of steel By each shining blade, a prayer was said that to Ireland her sons be true When the morning broke still the war flag shook out it's fold in the foggy dew. T' was England's bade our wild geese go that "small nations might be free" But their lonely graves are by Suvla's waves or the fringe of the great North Sea Oh had they died by Pearse's side or fought with Cathal Brugha Their names we would keep where the Fenians sleep 'neath the shroud of the foggy dew. Oh the bravest fell, and the Requiem bell rang mournfully and clear For those who died that Eastertide in the spring time of the year While the world did gaze, with deep amaze at those fearless men, but few Who bore the fight that the freedom's light might shine through the foggy dew. Back through the glen I rode again my heart with grief was sore For I parted with those gallant men Whom I'll never see no more But to and fro in my dreams I go And I kneel and I pray for you For slavery fled! O glorious dead! When you fell in the foggy dew!
Still one of my favorite songs. Best regards from Slovenia. We may live in different parts, but our history is similar. It's why I'll always understand the Irish fight against the British, just like we got occupied by Germans and Italians.
Tu pensa che i partigiani italiani avevano combattuto dicendo di voler cacciare l'invasore tedesco portandoci qua gli anglo-americani e ora , noi italiani, siamo a 90 nei confronti di entrambe le potenze...
@@bibimir I'll tell You in English! The partisans fought against the Nazis, ok? But we have to say that , unfortunately they brought us the anglo-american forces, who are still present today in pur soil, especially in Sardinia, Sicily and Veneto. As a joke , now the Germans came back not only with European union , but also with their weapons , because we have in Italy a special police called Eurogendfor, that would be used by EU to repress strikes and demonstrations through violence.
@@alessandro9818 yeah, and Italian partisans were cool too! And your partisan song O bella ciao is beautiful. Yeah, Germans seem to want to dominate the EU, even if it's supposed to be equal. Hopefully we can both stay free and friends with the crisis coming, since I know many nice Italians. And yeah, such police forces suck.
@@bibimir Yes! We should be an Independent nation once again, dreaming another kind of Europe of free states. But now, especially Here in Italy, we have this energy problem and democratic crisis..
I'm Argentinian and I love my country, even tho its government almost always makes the bad decision or is very corrupt. But if there is another country I would be very proud to be born in, it would be Ireland. May our fiery hearts never dim, may our love for our land never falter, and may our memory and thirst for justice against the British crown never rest.
Indeed what brave men they were, but also what brave women those great women of the ICA and Cumann na mBan were also who fought alongside their brothers during the Rising and of course the young boys of Na Fianna Eireann. The sacrifice, bravery and names of everyone who fought that Easter time for the Republic should never be forgotten. Not to remember them all is an affront to the Proclamation itself.
@@Santeria78 Good man and thank you for that. I will never understand why the women were left out of the song in the first place. Perhaps because it was a priest who wrote it and quite a few of the great women involved in the Rising were lesbians of course who would have been demonised and denounced by the church at the time. But who knows...Anyway, I hope you have a wonderful, happy Christmas and a peacful New Year.

Ireland is completely free. if you're talking about northern Ireland, they did not share the same sentiment, as their southern brothers. When Ireland went independent, northern Ireland wanted to remain loyal to the crown. in 1973, a year after bloody Sunday, the Northern Ireland held a referendum on independence, the nationalist boycotted it, and this resulted in over 98% voting to remain, even if the nationalists all voted, the majority would have still supported remain at around 57% supporting remain. Ireland did not exist as a country prior England invading, but many countries and factions. Ireland is more united now than it has even been.
If you fight against opression, surely you will be called a terrorist by the oppressors, but truth will call out and clear your names for you fought for freedom.
I didn’t know of the Irish history with the British until i started listening to these songs and I’m glad I did. I have newfound appreciation for the Irish people.
I've heard this version many times, yet the video editing refreshed new life into the song like a spring. I actually shed a few tears. May St. Patrick bless you all
understand what the problems with Ireland were there were many reasons why soldiers had a hard time because of restrictions and an entirely different battlefield remember America with the largest army withdrawed from Afghan basically surrendering

@@imeantherearethedarktownsy5210 Thats just bollocks mate, tell me when was Ireland "ever free" as outlined in the 1916 Proclamation, answer = NEVER. My guess it you have never read or understood the document, what do you think the civil war was all about?
@@Imyourhuckleberry01 Would you not consider liberation from British rule freedom? And do you really deny that the surge of support for irish Republicanism was in large part due to the martyr status of the heroes of the Rising?
Btw, before the Easter rising the vast majority of the Irish population was neutral towards British rule as long as the money kept flowing, what changed public opinion wasn't the revolutionaries valour but the brutal response of the British: they left Dublin in ruins, killing hundreds of civilians in the process, meanwhile turning the rebels into martyrs.
Even the PM was angry at the brutal response, he saw it as exactly that, a way for people to idolize and think of the revolutionaries as angels sent to save Ireland
But what about home rule crisis, the Gaelic revival and the famine being quite recent and the formation of paramilitaries like the UVF and Irish volunteers and IRB?
The hate wasn’t exactly because of that nobody’s liked them for hundreds of years about 700 before we got independence or 800 years because they took away are language and all that the biggest reasons before any of this is the famine and what the British did in it
@@Dpb_2008He likely meant the majority, as in, yeah there’s tons of people in Northern Ireland who want independence, that’s why the new IRA exists but there is a large population who doesn’t care.
And of course as people tend to forget he was in the British Army for 7 years and part of the British Army occupying force in Ireland for several years which is when met his Irish wife Lillie...when he was still in the British Army. Great man though.
*" 'Twas better to die neath an Irish sky, than at Suvla or Sud-el-Bar."* Congratulations Ireland, your people understood the simple fact that dying for one's own country is better rather than dying fighting for a foreign power, something which us Indians of the same time couldn't 🥲

This song is interesting. It feels like the irish version of the star spangled banner. Except while the SSB is about a single battle for a fort and the perserverence of the american troops keeping up the flag, this song is like that on the scale of an entire country. "Better to die neath an irish sky." I dont know, just reminds me of it.
@@matthewhorrigan5848 yeah but a bunch of Irish will go "you’re not real Irish, actually. You didn’t grow up in ireland so you can’t speak about the Irish suffering 🤓"
I remember hearing this song as a kid and thinking it was beautiful. Never even heard the lyrics just liked the tune. Revisiting it in my thirties I'm stunned. It's like your dad telling you a shocking secret you should have figured out yourself, one he would have told you if you had just asked. What a beautiful and terrible song. I can't imagine a single person in this world who wouldn't cry if they really really listened and paid attention. This song will be sung for millenia. In a world where the top songs only last a week on the radio before being replaced. I'm stunned

Lyrics:
As down the glen one Easter morn'
to a city fair rode I
There armed lines of marching men
In squadrons passed me by
no pipes did hum, no battle drum
did sound it's loud tattoo.
But the Angelus bell
o'er the Liffey swell
rang out in the foggy dew.
Right proudly high over Dublin town
They flung out the flag of war
'T was better to die, 'neath an Irish sky
Than at Suvla or Sud-el-bar
And from the plains of Royal Meath
Strong men came hurrying through
While Brittania's Huns
With their big great guns
sailed into the foggy dew.
Oh the night went black, and the rifles' crack
made perfidious Albion reel
'Mid the leaden rain, seven tongues of flame
did shine o'er the line of steel
By each shining blade, a prayer was said
that to Ireland her sons be true
When the morning broke
still the war flag shook
out it's fold in the foggy dew.
T' was England's bade our wild geese go
that "small nations might be free"
But their lonely graves are by Suvla's waves
or the fringe of the great North Sea
Oh had they died by Pearse's side
or fought with Cathal Brugha
Their names we would keep
where the Fenians sleep
'neath the shroud of the foggy dew.
Oh the bravest fell, and the Requiem bell
rang mournfully and clear
For those who died that Eastertide
in the spring time of the year
While the world did gaze, with deep amaze
at those fearless men, but few
Who bore the fight
that the freedom's light
might shine through the foggy dew.
Back through the glen I rode again
my heart with grief was sore
For I parted with those gallant men
Whom I'll never see no more
But to and fro in my dreams I go
And I kneel and I pray for you
For slavery fled!
O glorious dead!
When you fell in the foggy dew!

I love the history of Ireland. I hope someday I will be able to visit this wonderful country 🇮🇪
man,these songs are so great
God i love the Irish... Καληνύχτα από την Ελλάδα!
Greetings from Greece 💪🇮🇪🇬🇷
Strong support from France like always. Especially for a guy from Brittany like me, it makes sense. Celtic Irish brothers, you are always welcome to the Festival Interceltique de Lorient.
🙂
The flower of the free, the heather, The heather
The Bretons and Scots and Irish together
The Manx and the Welsh and Cornish forever
Six nations are we, proud Celtic and free
Song of the Celts - Wolfe Tones
Get the heck out you hypocrite dog france is different from britain you are the worst pigs France & Britain are the same category 😂
Brittany's not french though. Bevet Breizh frankiz!
"He who loses his life will gain it; he who will seek to save it shall lose it. Freedom is not for the coward or the faint-hearted.” - M. K. Gandhi
Absolute legend! It’s great to see young folk being proud of their nations! And foggy dew is the perfect song for this video!
Not really, the Rising was a failure.
@@Imyourhuckleberry01 Your British Hasbara is a failure.
@@Imyourhuckleberry01The notions on you. It failed, but without it we would have never been free.
@@imeantherearethedarktownsy5210 Thats just bollocks mate, tell me when was Ireland "ever free" as outlined in the 1916 Proclamation, answer = NEVER. My guess it you have never read or understood the document, what do you think the civil war was all about?
@@Imyourhuckleberry01 Would you not consider liberation from British rule freedom? And do you really deny that the surge of support for irish Republicanism was in large part due to the martyr status of the heroes of the Rising?
Why cant i stop listening to this song
The Irish fought hard for the Ireland
Respect for Ireland

"USA" is like 80 Irelands, all occupied by British squatters.
US is becoming a fascist state and it seems we cannot stop it
the us is a fascist settler colonial empire.
An interesting way to spend Christmas morning to say the least
I'm Hungarian,I love this,I love the Irish,they deserve their independence. Greetings.
Really excellent music, and hello from your cousins in Brittain (armorique)

Btw, before the Easter rising the vast majority of the Irish population was neutral towards British rule as long as the money kept flowing, what changed public opinion wasn't the revolutionaries valour but the brutal response of the British: they left Dublin in ruins, killing hundreds of civilians in the process, meanwhile turning the rebels into martyrs.
Even the PM was angry at the brutal response, he saw it as exactly that, a way for people to idolize and think of the revolutionaries as angels sent to save Ireland
But what about home rule crisis, the Gaelic revival and the famine being quite recent and the formation of paramilitaries like the UVF and Irish volunteers and IRB?
The hate wasn’t exactly because of that nobody’s liked them for hundreds of years about 700 before we got independence or 800 years because they took away are language and all that the biggest reasons before any of this is the famine and what the British did in it
@@Dpb_2008He likely meant the majority, as in, yeah there’s tons of people in Northern Ireland who want independence, that’s why the new IRA exists but there is a large population who doesn’t care.
Much love from a Pontic Greek who lives in Cyprus! To never kneel in front of the big tyrants and stay pure hearted ✝️
James Connolly was not Irish born and grew up in Edinburgh Scotland but had Irish parents.
And of course as people tend to forget he was in the British Army for 7 years and part of the British Army occupying force in Ireland for several years which is when met his Irish wife Lillie...when he was still in the British Army. Great man though.
*" 'Twas better to die neath an Irish sky, than at Suvla or Sud-el-Bar."*
Congratulations Ireland, your people understood the simple fact that dying for one's own country is better rather than dying fighting for a foreign power, something which us Indians of the same time couldn't 🥲
India is also a great inspiration to all of us that haven't gained our independence yet

I'm 🇨🇦, with 🇵🇱 & 🏴 heritage, (No, I don't speak Polish & don't understand Scottish) & this makes me patriotic for Ireland.
"Canada" is a British occupation.
a really well done job my friend
Rest in peace to all the boys who died for Ireland 🕊🟩⬜🟧
The song is great. It deserves a like. Hello from Ukraine
All people have the right to resist occupation and to collectively govern themselves of there own accord.
My grandfather was Irish but I was never able to meet him so to be able learn about such brave men and heroes is just a great experience
Wait raccoon I never knew your grandfather was Irish Is Gaeilge í tuaisceart Éireann
do not forget the women who fought there with them ... they were not there just to make the tea ...
@@shirleyroy26 you have good point, sorry I didn't notice
ITS THAT DAY AGAIN
Tiocfaidh ár lá!! Eirinn go bragh 🇮🇪Glory to the martyrs of Irish independence from a Greek patriot! 🇬🇷🇮🇪
And glory to the Greek and Greek Cypriot martyrs who gave their lives against the Turkish Huns! 🇮🇪💖🇬🇷
@@thenewme_Pal It is 100% called for, the Greek people have suffered under Turkish rule for almost as long as we Irish have under British tyranny.
@@thenewme_Pal There was a Greek genocide circa 1893.
Thank you for your fond wishes.
@@thenewme_Pal least nationalist turk and greek
I was actually born in Ireland spent 7 years worth of my life there. If it wasn’t for the Easter uprising I’d just be a Brit.
Imagine having the sheer entitlement to make the slaves you tried to genocide fight your own wars of naked jingoism for you, and go all surprised pikachu when they fight you instead.
nations that tried to make agreements to ally with hitler don't get to complain about jingoism
@@andrewmayo9400 Nations that have been oppressed and enslaved for centuries grasping at any straw they can find sure do.
@@andrewmayo9400why do you think the British don’t get to complain about jingoism?
@@andrewmayo9400Who exactly are you referring to? What time period are you even talking about? There is nothing wrong with trying to peacefully avoid another giant european war, whether you’re Russian , British or French. Especially when you don’t have the benefit of hindsight to understand the awfulness of hitler.
@@andrewmayo9400These guys have a big mouth when they have the betrayal of Czechoslovakia or the abandonment of Poland hidden under the carpet.
As an italian i can understand the struggle of this kind of rebellious songs as we have endured oppresion by french, spanish austrians and many more
Didn't the Italians invade other countries with their German allies about 80 years ago, or have I got that wrong.
@@michaeloconnell9476 you got it right, we also invented fascism and tried the imperialist road in the 20th century, where we failed horribly luckily.
Every coin has two sides
@@uomococcinella You also destroyed mainland Celtic culture in the form of the Roman Empire.

Remember the Eastern rising of 1916. Love from Croatia.
This song is interesting. It feels like the irish version of the star spangled banner. Except while the SSB is about a single battle for a fort and the perserverence of the american troops keeping up the flag, this song is like that on the scale of an entire country. "Better to die neath an irish sky."
I dont know, just reminds me of it.
Guess who's in the box!
LIZZYS IN A BOX IN A BOX NA NA NA
A piece of rubish with a crown right?
May the Irish people rise against the establishment that are trying to replace them
IRELAND BELONGS TO THE IRISH!
End the plantation
Ireland belongs to the workers. No one else.
Don't let anyone silence you.

@@uriel6318 last time I checked we're not the ones whose economy is in shambles.
I've always wondered where rebel movements get their uniforms and flags from.
Well they get them from......... They get them from..... Good god you're right
I'm not even Irish, I'm Canadian, but that brought a tear to my eye.
There's a lot of Irish heritage in Canada, you might be surprised...
@@matthewhorrigan5848 yeah but a bunch of Irish will go "you’re not real Irish, actually. You didn’t grow up in ireland so you can’t speak about the Irish suffering 🤓"
one year into the ongoing event that can't be named, and this song rings true
this song is a blast greetings from Wales Irelands Celtic Neighbour
and by blast i mean amazing
^^^^ no pun intended 😂 👏
I remember hearing this song as a kid and thinking it was beautiful. Never even heard the lyrics just liked the tune. Revisiting it in my thirties I'm stunned. It's like your dad telling you a shocking secret you should have figured out yourself, one he would have told you if you had just asked.
What a beautiful and terrible song. I can't imagine a single person in this world who wouldn't cry if they really really listened and paid attention.
This song will be sung for millenia. In a world where the top songs only last a week on the radio before being replaced.
I'm stunned
absolute gold video editing on the song
A shame we can't go back in time & give them modern arms.
Same. It’s an rabbit hole of honor, endurance & suffering
