| lyric | 1. Oh have you been to Avondale,
and lingered in it’s lovely vale
Where tall trees whisper and know the tale
of Avondale’s proud eagle.
2. Where pride and ancient glory fade,
So was the land where he was laid
Like Christ was thirty pieces paid
For Avondale’s proud eagle.
3. Long years that green and lovely vale
Has nursed Parnell, her grandest Gael
And curse the land that has betrayed
Fair Avondale’s proud eagle. |
