If poor in weal, he'll for you pay.<br />

And guide you where you safe may be;<br />

If you're his comiade, whilst you stay,<br />

His cottage holds a jubilee;<br />

His inmost soul he will unlock,<br />

And if he may your merits scan,<br />

Your confidence he scorns to mock.<br />

For faithful is an Irishman.<br />

By honor bound in wo or weal,<br />

Try him with gold, it won't prevaU,<br />

But e'en in fire you'U find him true;<br />

He seeks not safety—let his post<br />

Be where <strong>the</strong>re's aught in danger's van;<br />

Or if <strong>the</strong> field <strong>of</strong> fame be lost<br />

It won't be by an Irishman.<br />

Erin's lov'd land, from age to age.<br />

Be thou more great, more fam'd and firee.<br />

Defensive wars, cheap victory;<br />

And gentle breezes sweetly fan.<br />

May cheerful smdes serenely glide.<br />

In <strong>the</strong> breast <strong>of</strong> every Irishman.<br />
