To The Victims Of The Bombs
In Monaghan & Dublin


Hold out your hands
We think of our friendly Ireland
Dismay and horror
For the victims in Monaghan and Dublin
Italian blood does not ask for revenge
On those who did the attack
And cowardly hid
From graves full of tears
A voice is rising:
"No more hatred
No massacres, no sorrow
No more blood to cover
The green soil of Ireland
No more weapons, mourning, useless ruins
Hold out your hands
Love has no borders
Do not wait any more
Set to work
This is all the world wants:
May the sun of peace
Shine on the anguish of Ireland"


This poem was written on the day following the bombings by the curate of Casalattico, Frozinone, Italy. Casalattico was the home village of Antonio Magliocco, killed by the Parnell Street bomb.
