</a> <br></br>OH, Paddy dear! and did ye hear the news that’s goin’ round?<br></br>
The shamrock is forbid by law to grow on Irish ground!<br></br>
No more St. Patrick’s day we’ll keep; his colour can’t be seen,<br></br>
For there’s a cruel law against the Wearin’ o’ the Green!<br></br>

</a><br />OH, Paddy dear! and did ye hear the news that’s goin’ round?<br />
The shamrock is forbid by law to grow on Irish ground!<br />
No more St. Patrick’s day we’ll keep; his colour can’t be seen,<br />
For there’s a cruel law against the Wearin’ o’ the Green!<br />
<br />
I met with Napper Tandy, and he took me by the hand,<br />
And he said, “How’s poor old Ireland, and how does she stand?”<br />
“She’s the most distressful country that ever yet was seen,<br />
For they’re hanging men and women there for the Wearin’ o’ the Green.<br />
<br />
An’ if the colour we must wear is England’s cruel red,<br />
Let it remind us of the blood that Ireland has shed;<br />
Then pull the shamrock from your hat, and throw it on the sod,<br />
An’ never fear, ’twill take root there, though under foot ’tis trod.<br />
<br />
When law can stop the blades of grass from growin’ as they grow,<br />
An’ when the leaves in summer time their colour dare not show,<br />
Then I will change the colour, too, I wear in my caubeen;<br />
But till that day, please God, I’ll stick to the Wearin’ o’ the Green.<br />
<br />
But if at last our color should be torn from Ireland's heart.<br />
Her Sons with shame and sorrow from the dear old soil will part;<br />
I've heard whisper of a country, that lies far beyond the sea.<br />
Where, rich and poor stand equal in the light of Freedom's day.<br />
Oh! Erin, must we leave you driven by the tyrant's hand.<br />
Must we ask a mother's welcome from a strange, but happier land.<br />
Where the cruel Cross of England's thralldom never shall be seen;<br />
And where, thank God, we'll live and die still wearin' the green.<br />
<br />
<br />
here's what came next:<br />
In March 1900, after hearing the news of the Irish regiments victory in the Boer War, Queen Victoria sent this message to her Irish troops.<br />
<br />
"I have heard with deepest concern of the heavy losses sustained by my brave Irish soldiers."<br />
<br />
"Her Majesty, the Queen, is pleased to order that in future, upon St Patrick's Day, all ranks of her Irish regiments shall wear, as a distinction, a sprig of shamrock in their head dress to commemorate the gallantry of her Irish soldiers during the recent battles in South Africa."<br />
<br />
And to this day, on St. Patrick's Day, a member of the British Royal Family presents a Shamrock to the Irish Guards regiment of the British Army.
