I’m an old man myself these days , but I remember my Gramps telling me a long time ago about his personal battle on Gallipoi , about the endless mud , the lice infected uniforms , the stench of the dead and the dying . I believe he was trying to warn me that war isn’t glorious , but oftentimes miserable . He told me that a close friend literally died in his arms . When will we as humans find another way to solve conflict and disagreements ? My Gramps died in 1965 , still carrying shrapnel he received on Gallipoli .
This was my grandad's favorite song, now my dad's favorite song, and I sang it recently enough in the car one day when he was listening to it. Loved the smile on his face. Good times.

Remember, they were falsely promised that it would bring home rule...so they thought that they were furthering independence, so we should not be so quick to judge. RIP

I cried when I first heard this song. I didn't even know Ireland sent troops to Gallipoli. We feel your pain with all our hearts. May the souls of your lost ones rest in peace. Turks never forgets Gallipoli and British cruelty. Everyone who dies because of their cruelty is our brothers and sisters. Love from Turkey. Always.
I remember the day it stands clear in my mind We stood down by Dunlaoire to wave you goodbye Your ma was quietly weeping there was a[Em] tear in her eye As we sent you to Gallipoli to die You looked so young as you stood there a glint in your eye And you sang rebel songs as the streamers flew high Your ma turned away and I heard a sigh God your sailing to Gallipoli to die [Chorus] You were all that we had your mammy and me When you marched head a-rect you were proud as could be And it killed your poor ma and it's slowly killing me You were blown to kingdom come on the shores of Gallipoli We only got the one letter and we knew right away It said deepest regrets your son was bold and he was brave You were only nineteen yet your mammy and I Let you go to Gallipoli to die.

@@wehtam4807 but surely Matt are they not related , remember the English royal family changed their German surname to an English one ,but your royal family are really German,s , anyhow go and study Irish history and see how the Irish has suffered under English rule .
@@danny100ization I'm well aware of the atrocities committed by the English in Ireland and also of the British/German royal family. My point is, in case in you missed it, would the Kaiser have treated Ireland any differently. Also I believe the great war brought forward Irish independence by 20 years. After everything the English no longer had the resources or energy to continue to opposes home rule.
@@wehtam4807 once again you have missed the point , Ireland is not free from England as we speak and the Germans sent guns to Ireland during the war for independence ,old saying in Ireland, England's enemies are the Irish friends.
They were all young men sent to fight old men’s wars, scarred forever if they survived. Horrific things happen in wartime, & not just to combatants. But there was respect on both sides I believe, & Ataturk’s speech can still bring me to tears. My heart aches for the Johnnies & the Mehmets, & sadly it seems we’ve learned little in the last 100 or so years.
Today it is 101 years ago the war ended, but we must never forget.

What a song always reminds me of my good friend dollar
Remembering our dead who gave the ultimate sacrifice for the cause they believed in fighting for.
A blood sacrifice for Home Rule

the fureys and the clancys - the two greatest irish bands of all times
Nah, the Dubliners are much better. But I do like the Fureys. Check out the Wolfe Tones some time as well.....

Thanks for sharing keep up the great work ☘️☘️☘️
BEAUTIFUL
great song
I love the Fureys. Seen them in Milford Haven. Pembrokeshire. Please come again.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We shall remember them
This song is not about nations, it's about peace. WW1 was a terrible, terrible calamity that just did not need to happen.
Nice to see Paul . RIP

rip kitty her favourite song
Well said Raggy Pants...
Its from the album 'The Fureys & Davey Arthur - Live at Dublin National Stadium'
One of the best Bands every noen What Pleasure to be from Dublin in IRELAND'S 32 ,.
My dad was always mistaken for finbar fury the spit of each other.
I think your grandmother had a good hand in that
Magisch 👌
Top band the furys..lead singer up there with luke kelly irish legend👍
Finbar is the spit of my aulman or if my aulmans older he the spit of him, my dad was mistaken for him many a time
British conned the Irish into fighting and dying by promising Home Rule - a promise they never fulfilled.
rapier1954 Farrell they fought well before and after that but yea
No Irishman should ever be in a British uniform, sad time in the nation's history
They fought for money like everything else in this world governed by the shillings pounds and pence innit ?

I remember the day it stands clear in my mind
We stood down by Dunlaoire to wave you goodbye
Your ma was quietly weeping there was a[Em] tear in her eye
As we sent you to Gallipoli to die
You looked so young as you stood there a glint in your eye
And you sang rebel songs as the streamers flew high
Your ma turned away and I heard a sigh
God your sailing to Gallipoli to die
[Chorus]
You were all that we had your mammy and me
When you marched head a-rect you were proud as could be
And it killed your poor ma and it's slowly killing me
You were blown to kingdom come on the shores of Gallipoli
We only got the one letter and we knew right away
It said deepest regrets your son was bold and he was brave
You were only nineteen yet your mammy and I
Let you go to Gallipoli to die.
You fought for the wrong country,you fought for the wrong cause
And your ma often said it was Ireland's great loss
All those fine young men who marched to foreign shores to fight the wars
When the greatest war of all was
Lovely song 🎵 xx
I really get sick of the pathetic arguing. Just have respect.
i like this any more of same concert?

yes it is

No it isn't. It was written by a fellow called Mike Swann.

Gallipoli is the place where the United kingdom and european crusaders were destroyed. Heroic Turkish soldier
