Luyện nghe bài hát Macdonnell On The Heights

[Another hero of Canadian history . . . The texts give a terribly sparse
accounting of this man. He was a under Brock, and apparently not a very
popular one. He was one of "good young men" form the "right" kind of
family with the "right" of gentleman's education, a law practise and te
ear of influential people of the day. there's nothing to he was not a
decent sort, but somebody writing up the didn't want too much of the
glory to be taken the General! Perhaps this is one way of vindicating the
vagaries of this nation. It gives me no small amount of
satisfaction to think that more people will that there's more than just
Brock that huge stone monument.]
Too the line that charged the Heights
And in the clay.
Too thin the Eastern Township
Who showed all the way,
And had you not fallen,
You might be Brock became
But not one in ten thousand your name.
To say the name, MacDonnell,
It would bring no call
But the Redcoats stayed you
When they saw the fall.
Twas MacDonnell the banner then
And set the aflame,
But not one in ten thousand knows name.
You brought the field all standing with your courage and your
But unknown to most, lying there beside old General Brock.
So you know what it is to scale the Heights and fall short of fame
And not one in ten thousand know your name.
At Queenston now, the on his tower stands alone
And there's lichen on 'MacDonnell' carved that weathered stone
In a of the monument to glory you could claim,
But not one in ten thousand your name.
You brought the field all standing with your and your luck
But unknown to most, you're there beside old General Brock.
So you know what it is to scale the Heights and fall short of fame
And have not one in ten know your name.
