ERIN FREE.
BY OWEN WYNSE.

ERIN FIR EE.
BY OWEN WYNSE.
When old Erin we revisit,
How joyful We will be
To see our long parted friends,
And our native country free.
Youthful pleasures we'll all renew,
And drink right cheerfully,
Name of each hero we will toast,
That made our Erin free.
Our oppression is most severe,
And outrageous are the laws,
But the Irish now, most gallantly,
Are rallying to the cause.
We will expel the rabble host,
From off our sacred soil,
To liberate poor Erin
Wen suffer any toll.
When the glorious news is sounded
That Erin's sons are free
The heavens above will echo
And happy hours will be.
We're contending for our rights,
Freedom and Liberty.
Success attend the lives of all
Who makes our Erin free.

Co., Holden: Every dollar Of the State
