Ireland, Ireland, ’fore the wide world,
Ireland, Ireland over all!
When we fight we’ll fight for Ireland,
Answer only Ireland’s call;
Plain and mountain, rock and ocean,
From the Shannon to the sea.
Ireland, Ireland, ’fore the wide world,
Ireland one and Ireland free!
Ireland’s land and Ireland’s Nation,
Ireland’s faith and hope and song,
Irishmen will yet redeem them
From the foreign tyrant throng;
Ireland’s homes and Ireland’s hillsides
Shall be free from slavery;
Ireland, Ireland, ’fore the whole world,
Ireland one and Ireland free!
Unity and right and freedom
For our Irish Fatherland,
Strive we all we may secure them,
Strive we all with heart and hand
Be our aim then, God defending,
Right, eternal liberty!
Ireland, Ireland, ’fore the wide world,
Ireland one and Ireland free!
