  • Summary

  • The minstrel boy to the war is gone, In the ranks of death you'll find him; His fathers sword he has girded on, And his wild harp slung behind him. "God of song!" said the warrior bard, "Though all the world betrays thee, One sword at least thy rights shall guard, One faithful harp shall praise thee!" The minstrel fell! - but the foeman's chain Could not bring that proud soul under; The harp he loved ne'er spoke again For he tore is chords asunder; And said "no chains shall sully thee, Thou soul of love and bravery! Thy songs were made for the pure and free, They shall never sound in slavery." The chains upon the people came And they gave away their freedom. No prophets left, they then grew lame They accepted their false kingdom. But one young man saw the minstrel boy And he took up the shredded strings And with great love, remade with joy The sacred tool for truth to sing. For more, please visit: https://joshuadavidling.com
