Hinos de Países - Hino da Irlanda (A Soldier's Song)

We'll sing a song, a soldier's song
With cheering, rousing chorus
As round our blazing fires we thong
The starry heavens o'er us
Impatient for the coming fight
And as we wait the mornings light
Here in the silence of the night
We'll sing a soldier's 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 sireland
Shall shelter the despot or the slave
tonight we man the Bearna Baoghal
In Erin's cause come woe or weal
'Mid cannon's roar and rifle's peal
We'll chant a soldier's song

In valley green or towering crag
Our fathers fought before us
And conquered 'neath the same old flag
That's floating o'er us
We're children of a fighting race
That never yet has known disgrace
And as we march the foe to face
We'll sing a soldier's 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 sireland
Shall shelter the despot or the slave
tonight we man the Bearna Baoghal
In Erin's cause come woe or weal
'Mid cannon's roar and rifle's peal
We'll chant a soldier's song

Sons of the Gael! Men of the Pale!
The Long watched day is breaking
The serried ranks of Innisfail
Shall set the tyrant quaking
Our camp fires now are burning low
See in the east a silvery glow
Out yonder waits the saxon foe
So sing a soldier's 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 sireland
Shall shelter the despot or the slave
tonight we man the Bearna Baoghal
In Erin's cause come woe or weal
'Mid cannon's roar and rifle's peal
We'll chant a soldier's song
