Teksten voor The Soldiers' Song
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,
God bless the Pope,
Come woe or weal,
'Mid cannons' roar and rifles peal,
We'll chant a soldier's song.
IRISH:
Sinne Fianna Fáil,
atá faoi gheall ag Éirinn,
Buíon dar slua
thar toinn do ráinig chughainn,
Faoi mhóid bheith saor
Seantír ár sinsear feasta,
Ní fhagfar faoin tiorán ná faoin tráill.
Anocht a théam sa bhearna baoil,
Le gean ar Ghaeil, chun báis no saoil,
Le gunna scréach faoi lámhach na bpiléar,
Seo libh canaig Amhrán na bhFiann...
