Luyện nghe bài hát Macdonnell On The Heights

[Another unsung hero of history . . . The texts give a terribly sparse
of this man. He was a Major under Brock, and apparently not a very
popular one. He was one of those "good young men" form the "right" of
family with the "right" of gentleman's education, a law practise and te
ear of influential people of the day. there's to indicate he was not a
decent sort, but somebody up the accounts didn't want too much of the
glory to be taken from the General! this is one way of vindicating the
historical vagaries of this nation. It me no small amount of
to think that more people will know that there's more than just
Brock under that huge monument.]
Too thin the line that charged the
And in the clay.
Too the Eastern Township Scot
Who showed all the way,
And had you not fallen,
You might be Brock became
But not one in ten thousand knows name.
To say the name, MacDonnell,
It would no bugle call
But the Redcoats stayed you
When saw the General fall.
Twas MacDonnell raised the then
And set the aflame,
But not one in ten thousand your name.
You brought the field all standing your courage and your luck
But unknown to most, you're lying there beside old Brock.
So you know it is to scale the Heights and fall just short of fame
And have not one in ten know your name.
At Queenston now, the General on his tower stands
And there's on 'MacDonnell' carved upon that weathered stone
In a corner of the monument to glory you claim,
But not one in ten thousand knows name.
You brought the field all standing with your courage and your
But to most, you're lying there beside old General Brock.
So you know what it is to the Heights and fall just short of fame
And have not one in ten thousand know name.
