	The Minstrel Boy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		"The Minstrel Boy" is a song written by Thomas Moore (1779-1852) who set it to the melody of The Moreen, an old Irish air.
		It is widely believed that Moore composed the song in remembrance of a number of his friends, whom he met while studying at Trinity College, Dublin and who had participated in (and were killed during) the 1798 rebellion of the United Irishmen.
		However, the song gained widespread popularity and became a favorite of many Irishmen who fought during the United States Civil War.

		The minstrel, known to a few by the name of Zamiral, bowed one more time before fading into the crowd of nobles, his gestures as delicate and as graceful as a gazelle's.
		Essentially, Zamiral was a slave, but the boy of sixteen years still hadn't accepted the fact, even after six years of being in the palace.
		"Minstrel!" The urgent call jerked Zamiral awake, and the youth raised his head to blink away sleep as he gazed at the servant, who looked nervous and was sporting a red mark across his cheek.

		THE MINSTREL BOY Tune: The Moreen Words by Thomas Moore (1779-1852)
		Thy songs were made for the pure and free, They shall never sound in slavery!" The Minstrel Boy will return, we pray; When we hear the news, we all will cheer it, The minstrel boy will return one day, Torn perhaps in body, not in spirit.
		Then may he play on his harp in peace, In a world such as Heaven intended, For all the bitterness of man must cease, And ev'ry battle must be ended.

	Cipherdom (deprecated): The Minstrel Boy
		It can hardly be a better epitaph than Joe's version of "Minstrel Boy," an old Irish folk song whose lyrics seem hauntingly autobiographical in this context.
		I recall an early 80's interview in which he said Sandinista's kooky sleeve cartoons were an homage to R. Crumb.
		He said, "R. Crumb, where are you when we need you?" If we "needed" R. Crumb in 1982, the word doesn't suffice regarding Joe Strummer and 2003.

		The song was used in the made for tv Turner movie "Rough Riders." The song is given, in the movie, by capt 'Bucky' O'Niell to his men to learn.
		I don't believe he had any connection to the Minstrel Boy song tho.
		I agree with you -- the song is a fitting tribute to the American soldiers who fought and died in Somilia: the mornfull song conveys of the tradgedy of lost lives on a dubious mission for our country -- yeah, it chokes me up a little every time i hear it.
