Скачать или смотреть The national anthem of Ireland "Amhrán na bhFiann"/"The Soldier's Song", adopted 12 July 1926

"Amhrán na bhFiann"/called "The Soldier's Song" in English, is the national anthem of the Republic of Ireland. The music was composed by Peadar Kearney and Patrick Heeney, the original English lyrics by Kearney, and the Irish-language translation, now usually the version heard, by Liam Ó Rinn. The song has three verses, but only the choral refrain is used as the national anthem.

The Presidential Salute, played when the President of Ireland arrives at an official engagement, consists of the first four bars of the national anthem immediately followed by the last five.

Lyrics:

The lyrics are those of an Irish rebel song, exhorting all Irish people (both "Gaels" and "men of the Pale") to participate in the struggle to end the hegemony ("despot" over "slave") of the English ("Saxon foe") in Ireland ("Inisfail"). There are allusions to earlier Irish rebellions, and to support from Irish Americans ("from a land beyond the wave") such as Clan na Gael.Eyck attributes the song's rise to popularity to its "down-to-earth lines, descriptive imagery, fighting stance, and patriotic passion".

The original Irish translation by Ó Rinn used distinctly Munster Irish spelling, however, slight variations exist in modern published versions; in the following texts, the chorus is from the 2018 Seanad report;and the verses are based on National Anthems of the World (6th edition) with Irish spellings altered to meet the standards of An Caighdeán Oifigiúil, though, the original Munster Irish spellings are still in common usage.

Chorus
The chorus is the established National Anthem.

Irish version:

Sinne Fianna Fáil,atá faoi gheall ag Éirinn,
Buíon dár slua thar toinn do ráinig chugainn,
Faoi mhóid bheith saor Seantír ár sinsear feasta,
Ní fhágfar faoin tíorán ná faoin tráill.

Anocht a théam sa bhearna bhaoil,
Le gean ar Ghaeil, chun báis nó saoil,
Le gunna-scréach faoi lámhach na bpiléar,
Seo libh canaig' amhrán na bhFiann.
