A Soldiers Song – The National Anthem of the Republic Ireland

Gaelic

Amhr?n na bhFiann
Seo dhibh a ch?irde duan ?glaigh,
Cathr?imeach briomhar ceolmhar,
?r dtinte cn?mh go buacach t?id,
‘S an sp?ir go min r?altogach
Is fonnmhar faobhrach sinn chun gleo
‘S go ti?nmhar gl? roimh th?ocht do’n l?
F? chi?nas chaomh na hoiche ar seol:
Seo libh cana?dh Amhr?n na bhFiann

Curf?:
Sinne Firnna F?il
A t? f? gheall ag ?irinn,
buion d?r slua
Thar toinn do r?inig chugainn,
F? mh?id bheith saor.
Sean t?r ?r sinsir feasta
N? fhagfar f?’n tior?n n? f?n tr?il
Anocht a th?am sa bhearna bhaoil,
Le gean ar Ghaeil chun b?is n? saoil
Le guna screach f? l?mhach na bpil?ar
Seo libh cana?dh Amhr?n na bhFiann.

Cois b?nta r?idhe, ar ?rdaibh sl?ibhe,
Ba bhuachach ?r sinsir romhainn,
Ag l?mhach go tr?an f?’n s?r-bhrat s?in
T? thuas sa ghaoith go seolta
Ba dh?chas riamh d’?r gcine ch?idh
Gan iomp?il siar ? imirt ?ir,
‘S ag si?l mar iad i gcoinne n?mhad
Seo libh, cana?dh Amhr?n na bhFiann

English

We’ll sing a song, a soldier’s song,
With cheering rousing chorus,
As round our blazing fires we throng,
The starry heavens o’er us;
Impatient for the coming fight,
And as we wait the morning’s light,
Here in the silence of the night,
We’ll chant a soldier’s song.

Chorus:
Soldiers are we
whose lives are pledged to Ireland;
Some have come
from a land beyond the wave.
Sworn to be free,
No more our ancient sire land
Shall shelter the despot or the slave.
Tonight we man the gap of danger
In Erin’s cause, come woe or weal
“Mid cannons” roar and rifles peal,
We’ll chant a soldier’s song.

In valley green, on towering crag,
Our fathers fought before us,
And conquered ‘neath the same old flag
That’s proudly floating o’er us.
We’re children of a fighting race,
That never yet has known disgrace,
And as we march, the foe to face,
We’ll chant a soldier’s song.

Chorus
