Jimmy's Hall Page #4

Put those guns down immediately!

Put it down! Put them down!

I don't want any

innocent blood spilt.

Bide your time.

There's a time and a place.

Do as I say now. Now!

- Open that gate.

- Sean. Mossie.

Put your guns away.

- Guns away?

- Yes.

- Bring the cows in.

- Bring them through.

Stand aside. Stand aside.

Go on, stand over.

Stand aside.

Dessie. Dessie, usher them in.

Stand by them, stand by them.

Let them through.

Siil, siil, siil a rin

Siil go socair agus siil go ciin

Siil go doras agus alaigh lim

Is go dt t mo mhirnn sln

I wish, I wish, I wish in vain

I wish I had my heart again

And vainly think I'd not complain

Is go dt t mo mhirnn sln

Siil, siil, siil a rin

Siil go socair agus siil go ciin

Siil go...

- I want Gralton! He's under arrest!

- What for?

There'll be no more anarchy in Leitrim.

No more of your kangaroo courts.

Show us the warrant!

You've got to get out! Get out!

Go! Go!

Get out! Get out!

Get out of here!

Get away with you!

- What are you gonna do?

- I'll head to the States.

Oh, that looks a sore one. I'm sorry.

It's nothing.

It was worth it to see the

expression on his face, the bastard.

Will you say goodbye to Mam for me?

They're watching the farm.

How long are you gone for, Jimmy?

Till things calm down.

There's a few pistol boys keen

to make a name for themselves.

I've a few good comrades over in

New York who'll help me find work.

Mossie's waiting for me.

What if I asked you to

come with me, Oonagh?

What if my mother wasn't fading?

What if I wasn't the only daughter?

What if my dad wouldn't fall apart?

What if I wasn't so trapped, Jimmy?

What if, Oonagh?

And follow you around?

From one battle to the next?

Can I take that?

Are these the only clothes you have?

I hear they sell clothes in New York.

I suppose so.

Jimmy...

You'll be in my heart, girl.

No matter what.

Till the day I die.

Well, Jimmy... I think

you lost your bet.

Couldn't stay away.

Like a moth to a flame.

More like a dog to a post.

That feckin' gable's

never been right anyway.

- I wonder who built that, Tommy.

- Dessie did.

Are you ready for this again, Jimmy?

Jeez. Life's too short.

- We've no choice, do we?

- No.

- Come on, there's work to be done.

- Aye.

It's a beaut, eh?

Is that what you had in that trunk

that near broke my back, is it?

It'll be well worth it, Mossie.

- What the hell is it, Jimmy?

- His pet.

Looks grand, but I don't know

what we're gonna feed it on.

We'll have music while we work now.

It's a beautiful sound, isn't it?

Nice, Jimmy.

Jimmy, did you ever go to a jazz

club when you were in Harlem?

I did, aye. The Savoy Ballroom.
