It's too long to fit all of it in, so here's a snippet.
"Taking all of this into account we have listed songs that are Irish in nature, which stem from a pride in Irishness, or are themed around Irish patriots, it was around patriotic songs that most clarification was sought. Some of the songs referred to are known outwith traditional Irish circles. For example the song A nation once again featured in the Irish dancing show 'Celtic Tiger' which was seen by millions throughout the globe, as was the song 'Four green fields'. Both A nation once again and Foggy Dew topped BBC radio polls in recent times and several of the songs have been top of and featured in the Irish music charts.
The accompanying pictures below illustrate the Irish Government endorsement and recognition as patriots of those who died during the Easter Rising and War of Independence in the former part of the 20th century. The British ambassador to Ireland has attended these commemorations in the recent past. The pictures mirror those of other nations, their political leaders, armed forces and citizens who annually commemorate those who have died for their respective nations fighting against persecution, fascism and tyranny.
Below is a list of Irish songs that from an Equality perspective do not infringe any of the outlined legislation.
Amhrán na bhFiann ( Irish national anthem )
Fields of Athenry
Irish soldier laddie
Irish soldier boy
Lonesome boatman
Boys of the old brigade
Merry Ploughboy
Broad black brimmer
Foggy Dew
Let the people sing
Meet me at the pillar
Bold Robert Emmet
Kevin Barry
James Connolly
Michael Collins
James Connolly's ghost
Protestant men
Henry Joy
Dying rebel
Boolavogue
A nation once again
God save Ireland
Patrick Pearse
Banna strand
Boys of Wexford
The valley of Knockanure
Wearing of the green
Only our rivers run free
Tri-coloured ribbon
Oro Se Do Bhatha Abhaile
Save a piece of this island for me
On the one road
Grace
Farewell to Dublin
Galtee Mountain boy
Flight of earls
This land is your land
No Irish need apply
Lough Sheelin eviction
Four green fields
Winds are singing freedom
Down by the glenside"
