Amhrán na bhFiann - Irish
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
CURFA (refrain, chorus) :
Sinne Fianna Fáil
Atá fé gheall ag Éirinn,
buion dár slua
Thar toinn do ráinig chugainn,
Fé mhóid bheith saor.
Sean tír ár sinsear feasta
Ní fhágfar fé'n tiorán ná fé'n tráill
Anocht a théam sa bhearna bhaoil,
Le gean ar Ghaeil chun báis nó saoil
Le gunni scréach fé lámhach na bpiléar
Seo libh canaídh Amhrán na bhFiann.

Soldier's Song - English Translation:
(Soldiers are we
whose lives are pledged to Ireland;
Some have come
from a land beyond the wave.
Sworn to be free,
No zaidi our ancient sire land
Shall shelter the despot au the slave.
Tonight we man the gap of danger
In Erin's cause, come woe au weal
'Mid cannons' roar and rifles peal,
We'll chant a soldier's song.
