    You can wear an Easter lily for the men who fought and died
    You can wear an Easter lily for the women by their side
    You can wear an Easter lily for the heroes of '16
    Who gave us back our dignity and pride and self esteem
    You can wear an Easter lily for the women of the fight
    Webley Winnie (Winifred Carnie) and Liz Farrel (Elizabeth O’Farrell) and the Contas (Constance Markievicz) tall and bright
    You can wear an Easter lily for the patriots of the past
    Although they failed, the inspiration left by them would last
    You can wear an Easter lily for the men who fought and died
    You can wear an Easter lily for the women by their side
    You can wear an Easter lily for the heroes of '16
    Who gave us back our dignity and pride and self esteem
    You can wear an Easter lily to rekindle Fenian faith
    And remember our great heroes of the year of '98 (1798 Éirí Amach)
    You can wear an Easter lily for the Fenian men so brave
    Who died upon the scaffold for their countrymen to save
    You can wear an Easter lily for the men who signed their name
    For that mighty proclamation ended England's rule of shame
    Padraig Pearse, James Connolly, Thomas Clarke and Eamonn Ceannt
    (Sean) MacDermott and (Thomas) McDonagh, it's from God that they were sent
    You can wear an Easter lily for the men who fought and died
    You can wear an Easter lily for the women by their side
    You can wear an Easter lily for the heroes of '16
    Who gave us back our dignity and pride and self esteem
    You can wear an Easter lily for the free birds that have flown
    Francis Hughes, Bobby Sands, and Sean South from Garryowen
    You can wear an Easter lily for the volunteers with pride
    For Ned (Edward) Daley, and (Michael) O'Hanarahan, John Heuston, and (John) MacBride
    You can wear an Easter lily for the heroes of our time
    Thomas Ash, Michael Gaughan, and (Terence) MacSwiney and (Micky) Devine
    You can wear an Easter lily for the future of our land
    To see it reunited, free from England's violent hand
    You can wear an Easter lily for the men who fought and died
    You can wear an Easter lily for the women by their side
    You can wear an Easter lily for the heroes of '16
    Who gave us back our dignity and pride and self esteem
    You can wear an Easter lily for the saintly hordes who died
    In the years of great hunger, (Charles Edward) Trevelyan's genocide
    You can wear an Easter lily for the children's starving tears
    And the mothers who watched helplessly in action by their peers
    You can wear an Easter lily for the scaffold and the jails
    And the folks who fled in terror and in desperation sailed
    You can wear an Easter lily for the exiles that have flown
    And let them know that Ireland will always be their home
    You can wear an Easter lily for the men who fought and died
    You can wear an Easter lily for the women by their side
    You can wear an Easter lily for the heroes of '16
    Who gave us back our dignity and pride and self esteem
    You can wear an Easter lily for the men who fought and died
    You can wear an Easter lily for the women by their side
    You can wear an Easter lily for the heroes of '16
    Who gave us back our dignity and pride and self esteem

    Tan tragica es la historia de Irlanda como heroica la lucha de su pueblo contra el yugo colonial inglés.

    Derek, you and I shared a few pints in 2009 in the Liffey pub in St Paul MN. We discussed whether songs still were appropriate after the 2008 power-sharing govt. You had grand argument for, I none against. A great thing to hear this...
