54 No need of a tomb for the Singer! Her fair hair's pillow now Is the sacred clay of her country, and the sky above her brow Is the same that smiled and wept on her youth, and the grass around is deep With the clinging leaves of the shamrock that cover her peaceful sleep.

Undreaming there she will rest and wait, in the tomb her people make. Till she hears men's hearts, like the seeds in Spring, all stirring to be awake, Till she feels the moving of souls that strain till the bands around them break; And then, I think, her dead lips will smile and her eyes be oped to see. When the cry goes out to the Nations that the Singer's land is free!
