Let Erin Remember Posted 1 December , 2013 Share Posted 1 December , 2013 Google "Seamus at the Irish memorial, Macedonia" Check out this rendition, which was recorded last year at the Celtic Cross that was erected in 1926 to commemorate the 10 th(Irish)Division who fought on Gallipoli and in defence of Servia (sic) "Let Erin Remember Them with pride, As for her freedom, They too died."

sw63 Posted 1 December , 2013 Author Share Posted 1 December , 2013 I've been singing this song for over 20 years now and I never knew it had a third verse! Simon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anneca Posted 1 December , 2013 Share Posted 1 December , 2013 This was on BBC N Ireland the other week and I thought it was a great documentary. Like Simon, I didn't know it had a third verse. Anne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louis Gunn Posted 20 December , 2013 Share Posted 20 December , 2013 Wasn't keen on its' comments regarding the Troubles, seemed too pro-Nationalist but aside from that a great documentary. Just think, the tune could have called the Limivady Air? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
