-1-
In the land of Ireland Green and free
Lives the spirit of the Gael
Eternal as the shamrock’s soul
And the dream that will not fail
This land I love
This land is mine
By ancient Royal decree
My place of birth, my island home
Oh my Ireland green and free.

Chorus
Ireland, Ireland, our nation will prevail
Forever free through all eternity
Lives the spirit of the Gael.

-2-
In distant lands and foreign climes
Our sons and daughters sing
The song time history of our land
And the joys that it can bring
The times have changed, but Irish ways
Are carved in culture’s stone
Our Race as one
When peace is won
And no hero stands alone!

Chorus

-3-
In our Nation’s name we now proclaim,
Our Irish flag unfurled
And send our Gaelic message free
To the nations of the world
This land I love
This land is mine
By ancient Royal decree
My place of birth, my island home
Oh! My Ireland green and free

Chorus
