This gets me misty eyed as an American of Irish descent. Every 4th of July, I read the Pearse Proclamation and the Declaration of Independence. We must strive to spread Democracy throughout the world.
Such a beautiful reading. Madam, you are as beautiful and faithful today as you always have been, and as we have always known you to be. You are so loved and respected. We see you.
I'm first generation American Irish decent. My dad is from limerick and grandfather from mayo. I remember my father and family talking about this. Enjoyed celebrating the centennial in San Francisco. I travel to Ireland frequently and spend time with my family there.
I love this woman's strength. Great singer and person. Love when she stood against the pedophiles of the Catholic Church. This is Bryon Watkins in Las Vegas, Nevada., out.
I have outside my house in Italy the Poblacht na H Eireann as I want Italians to pass by and ask me what this means. It is the most beautiful and moving document - particularly for children - regarding the clear right, with the help of God, to self-govern.The most moving, well-constructed (particularly under the circumstances at the time) Act of Independence that can ever be written at any time and in any country.
Don't apologize for getting emotional about something so dear to your heart. It's an honor to fight for your homeland and all that is right. John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
Vou te ouvir e amar sempre minha cantora número um. Você fez a tua parte aqui agora está em paz com seu menino. A saudade é imensa Sinéad, mas não será esquecida principalmente pelo legado lindo e incrível que nos deixou. Adeus Sinéad O'Connor.
IRISHMEN AND IRISHWOMEN: In the name of God and of the dead generations from which she receives her old tradition of nationhood, Ireland, through us, summons her children to her flag and strikes for her freedom. Having organised and trained her manhood through her secret revolutionary organisation, the Irish Republican Brotherhood, and through her open military organisations, the Irish Volunteers and the Irish Citizen Army, having patiently perfected her discipline, having resolutely waited for the right moment to reveal itself, she now seizes that moment, and supported by her exiled children in America and by gallant allies in Europe, but relying in the first on her own strength, she strikes in full confidence of victory. We declare the right of the people of Ireland to the ownership of Ireland and to the unfettered control of Irish destinies, to be sovereign and indefeasible. The long usurpation of that right by a foreign people and government has not extinguished the right, nor can it ever be extinguished except by the destruction of the Irish people. In every generation the Irish people have asserted their right to national freedom and sovereignty; six times during the past three hundred years they have asserted it in arms. Standing on that fundamental right and again asserting it in arms in the face of the world, we hereby proclaim the Irish Republic as a Sovereign Independent State, and we pledge our lives and the lives of our comrades in arms to the cause of its freedom, of its welfare, and of its exaltation among the nations. The Irish Republic is entitled to, and hereby claims, the allegiance of every Irishman and Irishwoman. The Republic guarantees religious and civil liberty, equal rights and equal opportunities to all its citizens, and declares its resolve to pursue the happiness and prosperity of the whole nation and of all its parts, cherishing all the children of the nation equally, and oblivious of the differences carefully fostered by an alien Government, which have divided a minority from the majority in the past. Until our arms have brought the opportune moment for the establishment of a permanent National Government, representative of the whole people of Ireland and elected by the suffrages of all her men and women, the Provisional Government, hereby constituted, will administer the civil and military affairs of the Republic in trust for the people. We place the cause of the Irish Republic under the protection of the Most High God, Whose blessing we invoke upon our arms, and we pray that no one who serves that cause will dishonour it by cowardice, inhumanity, or rapine. In this supreme hour the Irish nation must, by its valour and discipline, and by the readiness of its children to sacrifice themselves for the common good, prove itself worthy of the august destiny to which it is called.

Dear Ireland, We Irish deem it our right to speak for all of you, whether you agree with us or not. We, like the American colonists who wrote the Declaration of Independence, think it is our right to plunge everyone into war whether or not they are fine with British rule. If you die based on our proclamation, we will merely blame our enemies, never ourselves.
+Dale Holmgren The only people okay with British rule were the ones who benefited from it, which was not the Irish people. There was a disgusting legacy of oppression that led to this Rising, and the deaths of those who fought or who sadly fell victim to the fighting, have allowed generations of people in Ireland to live in a peaceful place with the freedom to make our own decisions, and I appreciate that immensely.
+Dale Holmgren . Dear Ireland calling. --Rockford IL is not Ireland and we Irish are not interested in your opinion.When you describe someone as the enemy then of course they are to blame. If they (brits) were our friends they would not have subjected our country to the horrendous 800 years of oppression which included The Great Hunger, Cromwell, The Penal Laws, to mention just a few in no particular order . You sir are a rude ignorant person. Know this the croppy will NEVER lay back again, Now go ahead Google it and perhaps a little Irish history while your at it. Slán agus pog mo thoin.
***** You cannot blame today's British Parliament for what happened in the past any more than you can blame today's Congress for throwing Japanese-Americans into internment camps. Yes, Britain was wrong to send to prisons hundreds of Irish who took no part in the uprising; that said, my point was that the leaders of the uprising had no right to speak for all of Ireland, and if they were, they should have had the guts not to surrender. "We Irish are not interested in your opinion"; well, I don't think Irish think of one mind like you apparently do, so in that regard I hold the Irish in more respect for a diversity of thought. Which was my point all along - just because you're of one nationality doesn't mean you all think alike.
Holmgren, you clearly know nothing of what it feels like to be one of a prisoner nation. Death to tyranny, English, American, capitalist or any other - whatever it takes. God Save Ireland!
Dalehomegren. it was and still is to a great degree the British Government that Raped Plundered and Stole from our county for the past 800 years. So blame them. Im Scottish with proud Irish blood. TAL32
Tears in her eyes and raising her hand to God. Sinead was and forever will be most righteous.
Sinead, this world was never meant for someone as beautiful as you. She stands with Joyce and Luke Kelly as our greatest artists.
I'm Australian with irish heritage. ..I have this hanging in my house..and it always brings tears to my eyes
it'll be 100.next year.
+smokeybirdman it's 100 year this year
I m french. Nowadays we lived bad days with the terrorism . Sinead is just right . I know her and I'm very proud of her. God bless her and Ireland.

shes was the best of her time and was right all along god bless Sinead O Connor💯😪💔
i knew that by heart by the age of 12. Every Irish person should know it. #1916

We always stood up, Always. Belfast Ireland 🇮🇪
Our revenge will be the laughter of our children.
thank you for reading the document my grandfather composed and printed on easter Sunday night 1916
All seven signatories of the proclamation were executed by the British military. Even Nazis wouldn't do that.
May you rest in peace Sinéad.

Sinéad is amazing but her faith gives her comfort and turmoil God Bless her I didn't like to see her upset 🍀God bless Ireland from wales🙏
I also get emotional when the names of the Seven Signatories are read. That sounded like the late, great Dolores Riordan riffing at the end.
She was a Rebel at heart, true Irishwoman.
Bless you beautiful Soul,. . may you rest in peace now ✊☘💚x
Wow--that look at 4:01 shows us what "remembrance" really means.
