Hail The Hero (Mo Ghile Mear)

(album: Storm - 2011)

[Chant continues throughout:]
O-ro, ri na bhfarraige
Ri na bhfarraige
O-ro

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

Sé mo laoch mo Ghile Mear
Sé mo Cheasar, Ghile Mear,
Suan ná séan ní bhfuair me féin
Ó chuaidh I gcéin 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

Sé mo laoch mo Ghile Mear
Sé mo Cheasar, Ghile Mear,
Suan ná séan ní bhfuair me féin
Ó chuaidh I gcéin 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

Sé mo laoch mo Ghile Mear
Sé mo Cheasar, Ghile Mear,
Suan ná séan ní bhfuair me féin
Ó chuaidh I gcéin mo Ghile Mear

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

Sé mo laoch mo Ghile Mear
Sé mo Cheasar, Ghile Mear,
Suan ná séan ní bhfuair me féin
Ó chuaidh I gcéin mo Ghile Mear
