irish Michael mahonev.

Like "a sturdy Irish iebel, where the
swift Tugela uoars,
Is Irish Michael Mahony, a-fghting
for the Beers;
Not fighting for the Queen, my lads,
nor Tor a battered crown,
Is rebel Michael Mahony, from Tippe-
rary town.
There was nothing like wild hurrah
when Mahony marched away,
Nor majors great, or.captains, Numbered
orders to obey;
He,was major, captain, private, too, and
his heart was n@command,
When he stepped aboard the steamer
that was headed for the Rand
With a sprig OF shamrock near his
heart. plucked from cold Slievena-
He jumped upon the Durham wharf,
and hailed the rising sun.
And he sang not, Rule Britannia"
nor, my lads, God save the
l. Queen
But "a .stave OF Fenian treason" and
;tfe "Weariei' of,tie Green"
One look upon the sunlit sea, one to-
ward his Irish land,
And rebel Michael Nlahony was tramp
ing for the Rand;
Aoross the vcldt hes gone to stay,
where Maxims grrnfly frown,
And .Paui Kruger's hardest fighter is
from Tipperary town.
The weldt is still beneath his feet, the
sun is warm and white,
And rebel Michael Mahony's eye lis on
his rifle sight,
He's foremost on the firing line, Just
carving ON renown-
For the cause al glorious freedom and
for Tipperary town.
And from his home across the sea an
Irish colleen''s prayer,
Comes whlsp' ring to the battlefield
where missiles ell the air;
GOD bless Mikes flying bullets. may
each bring a Saxon down.
They do, for Fenians learn to shoot in
Tipperary town.
