The last words/letters of 1916 Easter Rising Signatories, Patrick Pearse, Thomas MacDonagh, Joseph Plunkett, Seán Mac Diarmada, James Connolly, Éamonn Ceannt and Thomas J. Clarke.
This video should be mandatory watching in every primary and secondary school in Ireland.
And also for every new Citizen ceremony so people can appreciate the bravery that brought freedom to this island of Ireland.
The island of Ireland is not free until the 32 counties =1 Ireland unfree shall never be at peace …and today 2024 this is not the Ireland these people fought & died for …they died for a united Ireland for Irish people…🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
They never thought you history in Ireland. Wiped from memory lies all told, develeras history lies lies lies.
@@mjp8278 they never taught you how to spell in school 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@GreenGrenouille didn’t you understand what I was writing ? Fcuk up then .
Mocking a person's spelling.. how low can you go.. pearse being a teacher, would certainly not appreciate this comment!@deeunwanted3800
I am in tears. I can't thank you enough for this video. All the time, effort and passion you put into preserving and sharing our Irish history with the world, and for that I want to truly thank you. God Bless You Davy ❤️ 🇮🇪
Just heaing these brave men in their final words was both Beautiful and absolutely heartbreaking.
Thank you so much Sara
"I write it out in a verse-
MacDonagh and MacBride
And Connolly and Pearse
Now and in time to be,
Wherever green is worn,
Are changed, changed utterly:
A terrible beauty is born."
Easter 1916 W. B. Yeats.
We owe it to these brave men to stand together and fight for Nation once again 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪 Ireland and the Irish Irish first 🙏🙏🙏🇮🇪
Does that mean voting against Sinn Fein ....?
Yes unfortunately they have forgotten the Irish people
@@barrymcgeown847 govt parties who’ve shared office since the beginning of the state...have forgotten the Irish people....not parties who have never been in govt.....many of the brand new nationalist parties are blaming Sinn Fein for this immigration mess....when it’s ffg who created it...stealing the votes from Sinn Fein and targeting peoples parties for this mess....is clearly only going to favour the existing kingship of big business parties...in the next elections....there is skullduggery at play.....remember ..guns were taken from the British govt...to keep the peoples parties down....a socialist movement was unacceptable to the empire....so the deal was...accept their system...or face the consequences....and so the guns were accepted....and here we are today...the first chance ever of socialist representation in Irish govt...and hey presto...we have a bunch of new pop up nationalist parties...blaming the state our country is in...on..the parties who have never been in govt ..and targeting their voters...big business skullduggery...underestimates the ordinary people of Ireland that much....I shed tears agin listening to the words read on this video....one word in particular stood out regarding the moment we are in.......”usurped”
@@universalelectricradio2373 Yes. They sold their soul and Ireland for a few bars of silver.
Before you choose a scapegoat and oppress a minority remember these heroes where also oppressed and a minority.
Thanks Davy 😢all love to my Irish family and friends very hard to listen 😢to ❤️🙏✝️🙏🇮🇪🇺🇲
Davy a wonderful video how brave were the men and woman in Easter 1916. I want to tell you somethings about myself. I am a Scottish Protestant and i was a member of the Orange Lodge when i was young. I was brought to Orange walks, Rangers games and my head was full of nonsense about the Empire and how great and Noble it was. Then i started to realise the truth about Ireland by reading about the Plantation, the Famine 1798 etc. I am 68 now i am a Scottish Nationalist and support 100% a United Ireland and i am a Kilmarnock supporter now NOT Rangers your work in your channel is excellent and look for all your new videos. Best of luck from Alba to the Emerald Island.
"A man who has the same views and opinions at 50 years of age as he had at 25 has wasted half of his life." - Aesop.
It takes courage and wisdom to acknowledge your own mistakes and alter your views on reality.
And how brave the men and women of Scotland! It does not matter to me what religion you are. I only know through history how the English destroyed your country and traditions just like ours, but they have underestimate us, they think we are still peasants but no more, no more ❤
The bravery shown as they each walked to their death..they were right, those future generations have remembered them and their sacrifice ☘️
🇮🇪💚
Always 💚
This is so sad especially now as Ireland is flooded with invaders we are near to losing our homeland after all this bloodshed of great brave men 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪RIP
Profoundly sad, but heart warming letters, as if they knew the freedom that would be the result of their sacrifice. Thanks Davy for reminding us of this.
Pearse and Connolly were two of the greatest Irishmen to ever live. True visionaries who could have changed the world if they weren’t taken from us too soon. Their sacrifice will never be forgotten.
Sean-Eire na nGaedheal go deo
I agree wholeheartedly with you, however the emigrant of tourist going to a distant land and bringing their Irish norms with them, have played an incredible role too
Thank you again for our history.
Thank you!
This is the content that can galvanize the people.
How can we hold our heads up if we don't take a page out of all these heroes books and damn fight for our liberty,safety,prosperity and because we owe it to the guys who laid down their lives for Ireland.❤
Thank you Davy, these proud sons of Ireland were so eloquent in the face of death. Long live the Republic 🇮🇪
Deepest respect

I rarely tear up at these kinds of videos, but when the Proclamation came on, I couldn't help it.
God bless to everyone at home from 🇨🇦!
💚
thank you, brave Irishmen.
Thank you so much Davy for this wonderful video✅🇨🇮
These heroes of the past must inspire us to rise up and resist the current oppression trying to destroy and enslave us✅👊
These men had great faith God bless them🙏
Davy, how many times did you try to read these last letters written by those great men without shedding a tear? Every time I think of what those men and women did for the nation and people of Ireland a tear comes to my eye. I’m eternally grateful for their sacrifice.🇮🇪
We so appreciate your doing these Davy.. and thank you for your devotion and dedication to presenting and preserving Irish history.. the last series of videos you did with Tom and Calum were the most heartbreaking yet we thought..
But this.. hearing their last words.. we are certain we will be moved once again to tears…
We will be there💜💙☘️
Hey Jen, thanks so much. This was actually the toughest video I've ever recorded. I had to re-record so many sections. This is a heartbreaking video, but also important to see how these men felt in their final hours.
@@davyholden You do an incredible job.. and most difficult because you are so close to what you see editing.. we feel you are heroic and brave.. no one understands how hard this is on the one who makes these videos..
Those walks you did with Tom and Calum are treasures.. they will live in the minds of your viewers forever.. we cannot appreciate you enough for doing these.. they are achingly beautiful 💜💙☘️
@davyholden literally heartbreaking 😢 I always feel so much sympathy for them all .... Sir. Roger Casement especially but not more so than any others who gave up their lives for us all 😢😢😢
My friend Michael, had Patrick Pearse's final letter hanging in his Pub in Newark, NJ USA. I would read it every time I was there. 🙏🇮🇪💚🇮🇪🙏
They gave us our fenian dead.. 🇮🇪🇮🇪
Dear Lord in Heaven.. we have no words.. we have only tears..😭
God Bless you for the courage and strength it took to make this video..
We could hear the sorrow in your voice.. and our tears mingle with yours 💜💙💚
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
@@peterallison-ex4yy 🙏😭💜💙☘️🙏🦋
@@peterallison-ex4yy We are still crying.. the video totally broke our hearts.. and our prayers and gratitude for Davy.. God gave him the strength to read the courageous words of those gallant men.. few could have done that.. thank you for your reply.. so kind you are💜💙☘️
@@Jen999 So true. I messaged Davy to say how sincere and emotional it was and yes more than a few tears. But also full of pride. Your eloquent and sincere words were truly moving and conveyed what we all felt. Thank you so much 🙏
@@peterallison-ex4yy You are truly welcome Peter.. all of us appreciate Davy so much.. he is an inspiration.. and he loves Ireland.. we are not there.. even so our hearts are :)💜💙🙏
Excellent brilliant work, Davy!
This Irish historical revolutionary documentary video, had me in tears....
Thanks again for all your great work Davy!
Incredible, the words ring so powerful decades later.... courage is timeless.
As a 50 year old man, I'm not ashamed to say my eyes were welling up a bit, listening to this audio of those letter, and to think what those men did for Ireland and her future generations of sons and daughters and compare those men with the shower of the vast majority of politicians we have here in Ireland. These Modern politicians wouldn't come close to the honour, and dignity of those brace men who died for Ireland.
Aontaím leat! Tá mé ag caoineadh anseo!💚🇮🇪
Not even close, I am embarrassed about Irish mainstream politicians today. I am glad I don't live there anymore.
@@CycleGranCanarias Always be proud of who you are & we are an ancient, beautifully unique shower of wee sh*its... still in any doubt.., look up the poem " Is mise an Gaeilge!"💚🇮🇪☘👊

You are a great Irish man Davy as they all were God bless you 🙏🇮🇪🙏🇮🇪🙏
Brilliant Davy ..this got me so emoitinal love you;re vids
Thank you so much Joe
As an Irish American Naval officer who committed to defend his nation with his life for 31 years, these statements are overwhelming and mean so much. I can feel every bit of their commitment and determination for freedom. 800 years of slavery, and it was these heroes that changed it all (for most of Ireland). Davy's videos are among the finest, most deeply meaningful video work on UA-cam.
Please don’t compare the US navy to our heroes. Your military is the British empire on steroids.
Irish American? You mean American.
@GreenGrenouille I’d like to know how Americans can be “Irish American” when they have one ancestor that lived there 200yrs ago.
What these people are is Americans born of Americans, that makes them American. Most couldn’t find Ireland on a map. 😂🤣😂
@GreenGrenouille what a crock! They have never been Irish, and will never be Irish!
Ask an Irishman how he feels about “American Irish”. He will tell you straight, that there is no such thing!
@GreenGrenouille you talk a lot of nonsense. My mother was Scottish, that doesn’t make me Scottish, or “Scottish British”. Wot a lot of tosh!
I have relatives alive and kicking in Scotland, but it doesn’t make me Scottish.
For slavery fled, O glorious dead
When you fell in the foggy dew
Bloody hell, this broke my heart. What a generation they were. We have a lot to live up to
Thank you Davy, for the letters & history.
My god that was powerfull . Peace was a true leader. Great stuff davy 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Beautiful ❤❤
Great video. Patrick Pearse’s bravery and faith is an inspiration to me. He is truly a hero to the Irish people . He is also a hero and inspiration to all free people and especially those that are struggling to be free.
True courage from noble hearts!
Thank you Davy! I cannot add anything more because your amazing videos say it all. Please keep them coming. God bless. ♥
Thank you so much Gary!

Thomas J Clarke "Ireland will never lie down again". Remember that 🇮🇪
March Monday 6th May.
Wonder what they feel if they can ‘see’ what is going on? They should have stayed alive for their children. This country failed to stay sovereign for even 50 yrs after this. I weep.
To abour Hill and a quick lime grave .that tell ya the empire was afraid of these women and men
I can't imagine how hard it must have been for those men to put down their final words for their Loved ones. So very straight from the Heart, it certainly had me Teary Eyed. R.I.P 🙏☘️
Tiochfaidh Ar Lar God Bless James Connolly and the Irish Citizen Army Brave men also the men that were never told about to fight all over Ireland during 1916 onwards xxxxx
Quality from start to finish, keep up the great work.
OH Davy, how hard it must have been for you to recite for us this video. Filled with immense sadness and heartache. I like all who listen will tear up and clear their throat a few times. But I'm so glad that Our brave Patriots went to their deaths not full of hatred like most would have expected but with a sense of duty , love for their family and friends, knowing that their deaths would not be in vain and with a clear conscious and acceptance that their faith was precious and would meet again in God's Kingdom. They are and will always be Hero's to us all and hopefully they know the love that Irelands people have for them and how we hold them all dearly in our hearts. Mary Queen of the Gael pray for them 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏. 💚🇮🇪☘✊
I had to do a lot of takes to get these words out. Easily the most difficult video I’ve ever recorded. Thank you so much.
@@davyholden I've read most but not all of
Thank you Davy, these are all beautiful words and I will remember them when I visit Kilmainham gaol this fall.
Heartbreaking but steel making; forging more strength to endure
If these brave men only knew how Ireland would turn out . They would turn in their graves. God bless them all.
I so agree with you it took such bravery to fight for Ireland and to see it today it's heartbreaking
Sincere eloquence in the face of an unnecessary finality; brave in words and deeds to a man, and in their shoes I could only hope to be a third as so.
I wonder what they would think if they could see what has become of dear old Ireland?
They would have been unhappy with partition for starters.
Every generation must struggle for their freedom. Freedom is not carved in stone. It is a living fight, a baton passed from one generation to its next.
@@MonaLisa-lu8zi How best to fight, however, nobody seem's to know. With guns? Voices? The first battle we must win is the battle against fear. They no longer shoot us in the stone-breakers yard....
I’m very happy to have found your channel. I have many questions about my Irish family and the history of Ireland.
Thank you Davey . Keep the spirit of Irish freedom alive and not over run with free loading Africans and Middle Easterners.
Tà mo chroì briste. What they did for us, our Parents and our Country. The bravest , loyal men facing up to their immient murder . Writting goodbye to all they loved, hoping that they leaving a better place for them , yet saying its just another day at work . Showed no fear. If only our leaders would fight for us now.
Tá mé ag caoineadh anseo fosta, is as an Tuaisceart mé, na contaetha dearmadta, is grá liom mo thír. Tá mo chroí briste fosta!🇮🇪🇮🇪💚💚💚
Davy, thank you. I'm feeling very sad today about our Ireland and the bravery f the men who died for us to have any sort of freedom.
A heartfelt thank you to you, Davy. These words, strong in the face of death, have moved me more than any in a long time.
108 years have passed and the world still gaze with deep amaze at those fearless men but few. We salute you and honour Ireland's patriot dead.
Davy, keep up the good work, fam. Love you.
That was heartbreaking very brave men of Ireland 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🕊️🕊️🕊️🕊️🪜🪜🪜🪜
Such gallant spirit.
The signature of Ireland !
RIP 🇮🇪 😢
Heartbreaking, how they could have changed things...if only...thank you for this video and the beautiful words x
Their bravery was incredible........
tears
Oh My God!!! Look At Us Now
God was so important to these remarkable heroes. Bring God back to Ireland.
The Catholic Church has made sure this will not happen again
Great upload Davy. Thank you. TAL🇮🇪 💚 🤍🧡
Powerful stuff
The likes of these true patriots will never be seen again rest in peace
youl be very surprised
As an Englishman, I am very moved to hear the last eloquent words of those brave Irish heros.
Weakness invites the opportunist, and Ireland has invited many of late.
Ireland, your heros faced the firing squad for you. Don't be bought by temporary affluence , and the false promise of more. You are being fooled. You are no more self governing now, than you were during British rule but you are in much greater peril.
Do not dishonour your heros who willingly died for your liberty.
Your saying we are worse off now with some immigrants than during the Black and Tans days? Seriously?
@@Maidaseu Yes. I am saying that. The black and tans were a result of an armed insurrection.
Wait to see what your present bosses do to you once you start an armed rebellion.
Also the Brits may have persecuted you, but they didn't replace you in your own Island. Sure there are the protestants in the North. But that invasion took centuries - and see what harm it wrought. The present invasion is only decades.
@@Maidaseu
You haven't started an armed rebellion yet. Wait and see what your new bosses do to you once you do.
This is very well done and it makes me want to know because i cannot help but wonder who the women were who contributed to the effort and what those contributions were
Cumann na mban & the brave everyday Irish women played their part.. they tried to write them out of history, but we'll never forget them. 🇮🇪🕊🇮🇪
God this broke my heart.
These Brave men must be turning in their graves at what the current excuse of a Government is doing to destroy our lovely country
So beautiful you can feel it in your heart
I feel a great Shame watching this, it’s upsetting that we gave it all away when it wasn’t ours to give.These Great Men deserve much better.It is time to make them Proud. 🇮🇪☘️🇮🇪
Ireland's Greats
Powerful davy
Beautifully done!! Huge thanks!
😢RIP
Oe word Davy. Brilliant!
The 1916 leaders had such inspiring and true faith not weakened by the sadness of their circumstances. People with a reverence for God & a heroic love for family & country .
I pray they were accompanied by the Angels into pardise.
Ar dheist De go raibh a Anam
Men filled with belief in their Eternal destiny Heaven even if short detour to purgatory to make satisfaction for sin was necessary.
Their identity was in Christ .
They knew who they & where they were going
So different to plight of our poor young people . All I can do is pray for their protection & many blessings.
God help us all...we will have to go through it all over again 😞
Great and courageous men. I hope we can live up to their expectations of us .
I am an English protestant by birth. But my heart is Republican through and through. Though these men died their sacrifice was not in vain. Their names live forever more. Their courage and dignity shines through every word
Taught u would of done a video on the day of bobby Sands anniversary Davie and don't forget his generation got the British forces to leave/out.
All the revolutionary heroes are legends but I personally think PROVO'S time was most effective proud of them all from Fenian to dissident.
This will be a hard one... 💔😢
These wonderful brave men would be horrified by what's happening in Ireland today.
All I have to say is that im moved by the cause. We will only need to be Lucky Once
Yet the world thinks the sun shines out of the brits arses… a lot of the island of Ireland follows British sport and supports their economy.
I don’t see other countries having marches to get the British out of Northern Ireland but we have had 10 marches in Dublin recently about Palestine and Israel. We had 800 yrs and not one euro country or further a field apart from America helped the Irish. We are still wanting freedom but the world loves “Great Britain” yet they still won’t give the north back.
For me, an American, learning the history of Ireland has opened my eyes to the effects of British oppression on Ireland and the good Irish people. My opinion of the Brits has reverted to America in our colonial period when we too 'served the crown' and had to drive them out! God Save Ireland!!!
class .. !
These final testaments of the heroes of The 1916 Rising put our current government to shame, and, all of those who have sold out our national sovereignty, culture and moral compass to worse ( The EU ) than they fought against in 1916, which was then The British Empire.
What do you think that the gallant executed patriots would think of the Ireland of today, and the inward migration? Just asking......
The March of a Nation can never be halted ☘🇮🇪☘✝️
I'm a republican I'm not a wee young man. I've lived through stuff. Those download had taught me something new. LOVE. Not war but LOVE. They all express they same thing. love
Amen to a man among MEN God grant him peace oh Lord and let be within Ireland as a 36 countess Lord grant them peace and freedom ❤
May they rest in peace and smile to Ireland from heaven 💚❤️🩹

My next son will be named Patrick Pearse Pilkington. Bobby Sands was starving when I was born. He said "our laughter will be the revenge of our children."
IRELAND IS FOR THE IRISH!
True men who lived and died by their beliefs and values. The British Empire was and is a horrible experiment that enslaved millions for profit....it's shameful they remain in the six counties....it's also shameful to see Ireland bow before the EU and become overrun by non Irish people ....
A very grand afternoon, Too All
These fine and very brave follows died to free Ireland from Great Britain, which Ireland battled for better than 800 hundred years. Only to sign on to another OVER LORD IN 23-1-1972 NAME THE EUROPEAN UNION. Ireland was free 52 years after signing the Anglo-Irish Treaty in 6-12-1922. What do you think those fine fellow would say about that....
ABSOLUTELY 💯 BRILLIANT 💯 AND BEAUTIFUL ,what would they think now. REST IN PEACE 🙏 🪦 all our true ,IRISH HEROES GOD BLESS YOU ALL 💖 🙏 ❤️ .
Wow!!!!! Brave men.
And now look at what they died for look at the country now worst in a lifetime ever
That's such a heartbreaking fact 😢😢😢 my heart bleeds for their sacrifice & now what we are dealing with 😢😢
💯
You say now look what they died for, did the world not hear about the invasion of Ireland by the brithsh,what exactly are they doin, or are you and the our person just pissing & moaning because your country is changing because you're still free from Britain and that's what those brave men that wrote those letters were fighting for, so you two drip-shits could make stupid comments about a great video about your countries HEROES
They died for freedom, that freedom is being lost to banks, corporations, the rich, all across the globe. So now it is everyone's fight. To claim back our lands and our work and our planet and our hope. The fight is always real.
From Brits out to Africa in.
Thanks
Thank you so much!
This broke me. God bless them.
Long Live those brave men 😢❤
