IRELAND v WALES ~ THE ANTHEMS
Ireland have not 1 but 2 Anthems- The National Anthem of Ireland and The IRU (Ireland Rugby Union) Anthem. At away games just the IRU Anthem is usually sung.
Today Ireland are playing at home at The Aviva Stadium in Dublin, so it is very likely that BOTH Anthems will be sung today!
IRELAND NATIONAL ANTHEM - A SOLDIERS SONG
We'll sing a song, a soldier's song, With cheering rousing chorus, As round our blazing fires we throng, The starry heavens o'er us; Impatient for the coming fight, And as we wait the morning's light, Here in the silence of the night, We'll chant a soldier's song. Chorus: 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 sire land Shall shelter the despot or the slave. Tonight we man the gap of danger In Erin's cause, come woe or weal "Mid cannons" roar and rifles peal, We'll chant a soldier's song.
In valley green, on towering crag, Our fathers fought before us, And conquered 'neath the same old flag That's proudly 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 chant a soldier's song.
IRELAND RUGBY UNION ANTHEM ~ IRELAND'S CALL (uniting players from both Southern Ireland and Northern Ireland)
MATCHDAY VERSION
Come the day and come the hour Come the power and the glory We have come to answer Our Country's call From the four proud provinces of Ireland Ireland, Ireland Together standing tall Shoulder to shoulder We'll answer Ireland's call
Ireland, Ireland Together standing tall Shoulder to shoulder We’ll answer Ireland’s Call WE’LL ANSWER IRELAND’S CALL!
WALES ~ MAE HEN WLAD FY NHADAU (matchday version)
Mae hen wlad fy nhadau yn annwyl i mi, Gwlad beirdd a chantorion, enwogion o fri; Ei gwrol ryfelwyr, gwladgarwyr tra mad, Dros ryddid collasant eu gwaed
Gwlad, gwlad, pleidiol wyf i'm gwlad. Tra môr yn fur i'r bur hoff bau, O bydded i'r hen iaith barhau.
