Every minute is wonderful. What is the tune near the end about our songs are not for slavery? I don't know it ? (Facebook: 12th October 2021)

The song is 'The Minstrel Boy.' An Old Irish song written by Thomas Moore about the 1798 rebellion. BTW also taken up in USA. Brenda O'Riordan sang it when we were on an IBMT visit to Spain out in the open looking out over the last battlefields of the International Brigades. The verse you refer to goes: "The harp he loved nare spoke again For he tore its cords asunder And said, "No chains shall sully thee Thou soul of love and brav'ry Thy songs were made for the pure and free They shall never sound in slavery"
