    Ireland, through us, summons her children to her flag and strikes for her freedom, to be sovereign and indefeasible

      No. In older English, and Hiberno-English, Indefeasible means the same as undefeatable.

    Some naming mistakes in the video:
    0:32 it's not "Liz Furrow" but Liz O'Farrell, a Cumann na Mban member who participated in the Easter Rising. It's also not the "Countas" but the "Cuntaois", the Irish word for "countess", in reference to Constance Markievicz.
    2:11 It's not O'Halleran but Michael O'Hanrahan, who was executed after the Easter Rising. It is also not "John Houston" but Sean Heuston, who was a member of Fianna Eireann and who was executed following the Easter Rising
    2:18 It's not Michael Gunn, but Michael Gaughan, a Provo who died in a British prison in 1974. It also isn't MacSweeny but Terence MacSwiney, the mayor of Cork who died of a hunger strike after being arrested by the Anglos in 1920.

    Those who are having trouble looking up Liz Furrow,
    The lyrics are wrong
    Its actually saying Liz Farrell
    Or her full name Elizabeth O'Farrell
    Nickname Nurse Farrel
    Case you're having trouble looking up who the part of the song is about.

    Can someone help me out on this please? Who was Liz Furrow during the Easter Rising please? I obviously know who Winifred Carney was and her Webley pistol and obviously I know who Liz (Elizabeth) "O'Farrell" was, but who was Liz Furrow please? Thanks. And it should be "Countess" (Markievicz) not Contas and and I think it should be either Eamonn Ceannt or Thomas Kent (both executed in 1916) not Eamonn Kent (suspect it's Eamonn Ceannt the great Uilleann Piper and signatory). And it should be MacDermott not MacDermont (but it should be Mac Diarmada really).

      Hey! Sorry for such a late response, I’m not Irish or of Irish descent (so sorry for the misspelling of the surnames) but I tried researching it myself and couldn’t find much on Liz Furrow. Perhaps a native Irish can shed some light?

      I believe Liz Furrow in this song is just a misspelling of Liz O'Farrell. Other versions of this song never mention a Liz Furrow. My research into it also came up empty, which is odd since if there was a Liz Furrow who fought in 1916 - she would be well documented.
