The Dying Rebel performed by Derek Warfield & The Young Wolfe Tones

A Great Ballad about the unknown volunteer for 1916. Many young men and women fought for Irish Independence and their names or not on everyones lips. This song reminds us of the unknown soldier!!

The night was dark and the fight was over The moon shone down O'Connell Street I stood alone where brave men perished They're gone, they're gone, their God to meet My only son was shot in Dublin Fighting for his country bold He fought for Ireland and Ireland only The harp, and shamrock, green white and gold The first I met was a grey-haired father Searching for his only son I said, "Old man, there's no use searching For up to heaven your son has gone" The old man cried, out broken hearted Bending o’er, I heard him say “I knew my son, was too kind hearted, I knew my son, would never heed.” My only son was shot in Dublin Fighting for his country bold He fought for Ireland and Ireland only The harp, and shamrock, green white and gold The last I met was a dying rebel Bending low, I heard him say "God bless my home in dear Cork City God bless the cause for which I die" My only son was shot in Dublin Fighting for his country bold He fought for Ireland and Ireland only The harp, and shamrock, green white and gold The harp, and shamrock, green white and gold

[@MarnieRua742]

Have always understood that this song was about Michael Joseph O'Rahilly known as The O'Rahilly, was an Irish republican and nationalist; NOT an unknown soldier. RIP on the Bed of heaven to all of them

[@Waldemarvonanhalt]

Thanks for the volunteers that went to Transvaal. Much appreciated as well.

Some how I think we will have dying rebels again.

[@arthurashton8389]

How many people would give their life for Ireland today. Many .. a lot in England would die for Ireland .

[@arthurashton8389]

The Irish people have been treated like the way Hitler treated the Jews..with no respect .

[@RIPDixie1865]

Beautiful song. Our ancestors have much in common. Both were rebels that bled and died for their homelands. Deo Vindice to our Irish brethren from the Confederacy

[@hughneek12]

And may God bless you and your folk too. From an Irishman.
