AVONDALE Dominic Behan Oh have you been to Avondale And wandered in her lovely vale Where tall trees whisper low the tale Of Avondale's proud eagle. Where fame and ancient glory fade Such was the land where he was laid Like Christ was thirty pieces paid For Avondale's proud eagle . Long years that green and lovely vale Has nursed Parnell our grandest Gael And cursed the land that has betrayed Fair Avondale's proud eagle |
