I recall a family friend, Gone now and sorely missed, Paddy Carroll, a soldier of 1916-22. I recall his trials and travails, and will think of him when I hear the Anthem again. You got me all " misty" with this piece, thank you, as I will spend the evening in fond memory of Paddy Carroll of Co. Leitrim. RIP Paddy, and eternal thanks for your sacrifice.
It took me about four weeks to learn how to sing Amhrán na bhFiann with a Mayo Accent... I sing it loud and proud wherever and whenever I can. I am so proud to be Irish.... what's funny because I am german.
Das kann ich überbieten 😂 My Father is Irish actually I'm even Born in Ireland. But my family moved to Austria when I was about 4 years old. Und somit 4 Jahre Irland 48 Jahre Österreich. Mein Englisch ist rostiger als ein alter Opel. 😂😂😂 von gälisch ganz zu schweigen

Really enjoyable and informative video Molly. Peader Kearney one of the writers of Amhrán na bhFiann is the uncle of the famous Irish writer Brendan Behan.
Dia dhuit Molly! I thank you from the very core of my heart for uploading such a nice video! Everyone loves our national anthem in my family and thus I really really appreciate it! Unlike some members of my family and my friends,I don't find it tough to pronounce! Good job! Thaitin an físeán go mór liom mar is breá liom ár n-amhrán náisiúnta! Maith thú! Míle buíochas agus slán tamall!
Dia dhuit Molly! I'm absolutely delighted by your video! Really loved it,you told many details I was not aware of! By the way I am trying to learn it by heart ! Físeán iontach agus dála an scéil táim ag iarraidh é a fhoghlaim de chroí! Go raibh maith agat agus slán go fóill!
Haha I love how when you speak Irish the captions say [Music] when all you're saying is 'welcome to the channel'🤣PROOF that Irish is as beautiful as music, even TH-cam admits it! 😉 Also: you have a lovely sweet voice. I'd listen to that! I like the line 'some have come from a land beyond the wave' - as a French girl across the sea I feel included - like I can love Ireland even if I'm separated from her.
Go raibh mhaith agat! Thank you, Molly. I've been looking for a decent translation for quite some time. If you don't mind me asking, is Irish still used much in the Republic Of Ireland? Or Ulster? I only ask as I'm moving to the Republic some time in the next few years.
@@Tjmce Okay, thank you so much! I'll be sure to keep that in mind.

Donegal, Cavan and Monaghan are in Ulster but part of the republic 😊 nobody would speak Irish instead of English unless in the Gaeltacht but there are society’s and groups for it if you want to speak it👍🏻 like conradh na Gaeilge or just other local groups and communities
Very interesting video! I always loved this anthem but never stopped to understand the words (I knew what it is about, of course) also, you look great!
Ah mo caileen deas, go raibh mila mait agut. What about a personal rendition in you own very lovely voice of at least the first verse??(ah go on, do it, Pleeeze) I well remember in the older times we used to sing (yes sing!) the National Anthem in the picture house when the pictures'Movies' was ended. A few of the less patriotic used to dash out just before the movie was over so'as they wouldn't have to be waiting for the rush out??..slan go foill. Breandan O Murcada
As a proud Irish man, I’m embarrassed that I don’t know the Irish National Anthem. With the help of your video, I’m going to learn both the English and most importantly the Irish versions. I’ll also share it with my kids. Thinks again, ❤️🇮🇪
Dia Duit Molly. I know our National Anthem in the English language but have always aspired to learn it in Irish. Not great when you stand in Croke Park at maybe an All-Ireland Final and can't sing your own National Anthem. 🙈🙈
The National Anthem From Department of the Taoiseach The national anthem, called ‘The Soldier's Song’/‘Amhrán na bhFiann’, was written by Peadar Kearney either early in 1910 or late in 1909 (according to an affidavit signed by him in 1926). The music, by Patrick Heeney, is understood to have been composed around the same time. The original English text of ‘The Soldier’s Song’ was first published in Bulmer Hobson’s Irish Freedom newspaper in 1912. ‘The Soldier's Song’ was not widely known until it was sung at the GPO during the Easter Rising of 1916. Liam Ring (Ó Rinn) was responsible for its first translation into Irish in late 1916 and it was published in the Army magazine, An tÓglach, on 3 November, 1923. On 12 July, 1926, the executive council of the Irish Free State decided to adopt the music of ‘The Soldier's Song’/‘Amhrán na bhFiann’ as the official national anthem. All three men responsible for the national anthem, Peadar Kearney, Patrick Heeney and Liam Ring (Ó Rinn), were from Dublin’s north inner city and lived within 200 yards of each other. www.gov.ie/en/publication/52a628-the-national-anthem/?referrer=www.taoiseach.gov.ie/eng/Historical_Information/The_National_Anthem/ Also, an excellent documentary on the subject is Amhrán na bhFiann - TG4 th-cam.com/video/u0rwbsFmRK0/w-d-xo.html
Enjoyed the video, and the story behind the anthem. On Jan 20, my country’s anthem will once again be The Star Spangled Banner, to be sung with pride, replacing “Yakety Sax” as our anthem of the last four years. Sorry about all that, world.
I’ve seen ‘foai’ phonetically said or heard as as fwee foy fay and ‘chugainn’ said or heard as coo-in qween chooon. Is this due to regional dialect differences? It’s Irish speakers I’ve heard these differences
Fear of UK 😜. I hear that Irish shame on their legacy and live as English. Poor Irish ancestors 🤔 I am Asian I can't understand why Irish ignore own culture

There’s an old story that some musicians in a pub were approached by an American tourist and asked if they could play his favourite Irish tune - he wasn’t sure of its name but it has the line ‘Shoving Connie, around the field…’ 😅
FFS. My Dad's Irish. Me mam's Finnish. Thanks for giving me the two hardest languages in Europe. All I need is a Hungarian relative and I'm properly bollixed.
It should be noted that the English version shown here is not an absolutely accurate translation of the Irish words. To maintain the metre in English some liberty had to taken with language.
my Granny came from a village called Ballure It is on the road to Kilkelly not too far from the border with Roscomain. I knew the Gallagher's of Forde's pub in kiltimagh. Vera, Tommy, and Lil Forde ran the pub. Jimmy Gallagher and Tommy were both of the Mayo regiment As far as my Granny's family went her father was Tommy Cannon married to Bridget Gallagher. Both the Cannons and Gallagher's were related to the Carroll's do to a double marriage. My Granny, MaryAnne Cannon had a maternal grandmother named Mariah Carroll. Mariah would have spoken Gaelga as her first language. Not sure how long Donegal clans have been in Mayo. It may have had something to do with the forced migrations to Mayo during the Cromwellian invasion.
Awesome, thank you! I'm a diaspora citizen of Ireland through my grandmother, and it occurred to me I should learn the national anthem. I didn't even realize it was normally sung in Irish. Your video was very helpful. Cheers!
Bravo. May Ireland always be free from negative foreign influence, nothing wrong with benevolent Nationalism, and National Sovereignty!!

Why are the English still occupying Ireland?
The Irish should have a United, Free Ireland.
with only one Flag and one National Anthem.
The English are occupying shit , they are busy, begging the Scottish, waiting them on hands and knees for them to stay

Thank you. As a new Irish citizen I would love to be able to sing this in Irish and this will be very helpful
Great work once again. Just wondering if you will ever do a video covering Glaoch na hÉireann (Ireland's Call as Gaeilge)

Have you literally translation of Irish version to English?
Ready for the next Ireland international match 😀
Thanks Molly. Now , I finally have the words to our National Anthem. GRMMA.
I found myself translating certain words to Munster dialect for shits and giggles. Lol

What part of Mayo please, as I have a bit of the Gallagher history. Not only came from Donegal, from all over.
my Granny came from a village called Ballure It is on the road to Kilkelly not too far from the border with Roscomain. I knew the Gallagher's of Forde's pub in kiltimagh.

Please give this a go: speak Irish with the Dublin and Galway accents as bet you can to compare to your accent!
