Christmas 1915 by Pádraic Pearse is a reflective and solemn poem written during the dark days of World War I and in the lead-up to the 1916 Easter Rising. The poem captures a moment of quiet contemplation on the meaning of Christmas amidst the backdrop of suffering, sacrifice, and the anticipation of revolution. Pearse contrasts the spiritual significance of Christmas, a time for peace and goodwill, with the violence and turmoil enveloping Ireland and Europe at the time. The poem suggests a yearning for redemption and renewal, not only for Ireland but for humanity as a whole, while acknowledging the heavy cost that may come. Christmas 1915 conveys Pearse's deep sense of duty to his country and his belief that true peace can only be achieved through sacrifice. • O King that was born • To set bondsmen free, • In the coming battle, • Help thy Gael ! • Poem written by Pádraic H.
