Lyrics of Hail the hero

(chant continues throughout)
O-ro, ri na bhfarraige
Ri na bhfarraige
O-ro

O-ro, ri na bhfarraige
Ri na bhfarraige
O-ro

S mo laoch mo ghile mear
S mo cheasar, ghile mear,
Suan n san n bhfuair me fin
Chuaidh i gcin mo ghile mear

O-ro, ri na bhfarraige
Ri na bhfarraige
O-ro

Hail the hero, strong and true
Who fought the fight and saw it through
Who swore he ne'er would be a slave
And gave his life, our land to save

S mo laoch mo ghile mear
S mo cheasar, ghile mear,
Suan n san n bhfuair me fin
Chuaidh i gcin mo ghile mear

O-ro, ri na bhfarraige
Ri na bhfarraige
O-ro

O-ro, ri na bhfarraige
Ri na bhfarraige
O-ro

From our wild atlantic shore
Above the mighty ocean's roar
Let's sing from the highest mountainside
Of heroes who fill our hearts with pride

S mo laoch mo ghile mear
S mo cheasar, ghile mear,
Suan n san n bhfuair me fin
Chuaidh i gcin mo ghile mear

O-ro, ri na bhfarraige
Ri na bhfarraige
O-ro

S mo laoch mo ghile mear
S mo cheasar, ghile mear,
Suan n san n bhfuair me fin
Chuaidh i gcin mo ghile mear
