Chant:
O-Ro, Ri na bhfarraige,
Ri na bhfarraige
Na bhfarraige mhoir Ro!
(2)
[Chorus]
Se mo laoch mo ghile mear,
Se mo cheasar, gile mear,
Suan no Sean, Ni bhfuair me fhein
O chuaidh i gcein mo ghile mear
Hail the hero, strong and true,
Who fought the fight, and saw it through,
Who swore he ne'er would be a slave
And gave his life our land to save.
[Chorus]
Tho' bruised and bowed and down at heel,
We made a vow we'd never kneel,
Before the invader's power and might,
With the flame of freedom burning bright.
[Chorus]
From our wild Atlantic shore,
Above the mighty ocean's roar.
Let's sing from the highest mountain side
Of heroes who fill our hearts with pride.
