O&#8217;Connell<br \/>\nWhere Brian chased the Dane and St Patrick the vermin,<br \/>\nAnd those valleys remain still most beautiful and charming?<br \/>\nWill you come, will you, will you, will you

over,<br \/>\nFrom those bright golden views to enchanting restrover.<br \/>\nWill you come, will you, will you, will you come to the bower<\/p>\n<p>You can see Dublin City and the fine groves of Blarney,<br \/>\nThe Baun, Boyne, and Liffey, and the lakes of Killarney,<br \/>\nYou can ride on the tide o&#8217;er the broad Majestic Shannon,<br \/>\nYou can sail round Loch Neagh and see storied Dungannon.<br \/>\nWill you come, will you, will you, will you come to the bower<\/p>\n<p>You can visit New Ross, gallant Wexford and Gorey,<br \/>\nWhere the green was last seen by proud Saxon and Tory,<br \/>\nWhere the soil is sanctified by the blood of each true man,<br \/>\nWhere they died satisfied their enemies they would not run from<br \/>\nWill you come, will you, will you, will you come to the bower<\/p>\n<p>Will you come and awake our dead land from its slumber,<br \/>\nAnd her fetters we will break links that long are encumbered,<br \/>\nAnd the air will resound with hosannas to greet you,<br \/>\nOn the shore will be found gallant Irishmen to meet you.<br \/>\nWill you come, will you, will you, will you come to the
