@skewer91 What exactly do you think you'll achieve by writing that ?
Do you think people will think you're a racist, big man over the internet ? In your dreams, you're probably a fucking coward who would regret ever saying it and run away like a coward if you said that to any proud Irishman's face

If Amhrán na bhFiann sucks, then Irish history sucks, and the sacrifices of the men and women of 1916 suck too. Sorry mate—there is too much behind this song to ever reduce it to the level you describe
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This anthem sucks! It's old hat. We need something modern, even Danny Boy will do. That Irelan's Call sucks, too! Who wrote it? A lot of people in Ireland who speak Irish seem to think they are "elite". Like hell, they are! They're probably devout Catholics who don't even know there are Protestant Services "as Gaeilge" in Dublin. If they opened their eyese and ears instead of their gobs, they'd learn something every day. However, how do you get thru to Anglophobics?
It's very pretty. Sounds very Irish! I would not mistake it for any other country's anthem! Such a pretty tune. Irish is one of those magic languages - like Welsh and Gaelic and the others- languages that should endure - there is so much history there and culture it would be such a shame if these languages died out.
@WOLFGANGER666 lol I saw you on another vid, which highlights the fact that you're just going from vid to vid trolling Irish people. You're pathetic. Nothing you say matters, or changes anything about Irish customs, culture and most importantly our overwhelming pride. I just thought I'd let you know that.
I'm English but I keep coming back to play this anthem. I'll watch the Irish rugby matches just to see the passion of the players singing this. It's uplifting and I can understand why @evilcarlycarmine feels proud to be Irish.
lisburn-lisbon thats not the point u stupid irish twat! you changed ur mind because ur all brean dead sheep & did what ur masters told u 2 & about what u said about not knowing what was in it the first time, well the world knows all 2 well that that was just an excuse 2 try & hide your countrys cowardness in been bullied into doing what u were told! oh & about the name the fighting irish, well you fools gave that nick name 2 urselves no 1 else see's u as fighters! God bless Poland!!!!!
@WOLFGANGER666 i think you should treat better the country that receives with the open arms most of your immigrants, oh, and i respect so much your country, i am even learning its language?
@MrBlatherblather- The valor of the Irish is well known, and could hardly be questioned. But the Polish put up one hell of a fight when Hitler and Stalin turned on them. Then many Poles became part of the resistance movement, which gave the Nazis and the Soviets no end of trouble. They even fought on after the war ended, and the Polish government in exile stubbornly held out in Britain until the Wall came down and they could finally come home again. The Polish are as brave as anybody.
@Jurassic0Al Yes I apologize. I was trying to piss off the ass I responded too. I have nothing but the utmost respect for the Polish, they've actually gone through a lot of what the Irish have too. I meant nothing by the comment other than to poke at the other.
@MrBlatherblather- Oh, I know what that's like. I once took a similar shot at a Finnish guy when I was arguing with him on some other video. Ironically, I respect the Finns plenty, if only for the terrific fight they put up when the Soviets invaded. But like I said, certainly is tempting to poke at the other guy in an argument.
@thedonegan Hallo Bill, die Deutsche Lautumschreibung des Irischen Gaelisch ist nicht so einfach. Ich versuche es mal und sende dir das als PN durch. Nur ein paar Tipps: s vor und nach i und e wird i.d.R. wie sch ausgesprochen vor a, o, u nicht. aoi ist oft als ein i oder ui wie ui aber das u dann kurz, vielleicht wie im Englischen wish, also nicht so ganz easy. Aber ich probier es mal anhand meines einzigen Lehrbuchs in deutscher Sprache in Lautschrift zu "übersetzen".
here is a link it should help, the courus is written phonetically, it has got a translation into engish if thats any help, p.s. hope your not from saxony ;-) haha
@CandyKidable I'm not trying to be hatin', yo! I just think that it's interesting that the song was originally composed in English. I agree that it should be in Irish, I think It's a beautiful song.
i hear this tune i get shivers down my spine , i'm irish and love everything that is. do you realise the man that owns jacobs put hundreds of irish men and women on the dole, just so he could have more profit by sorcing once irish made biscuits to england , shame on you i say, how can an irish man take the food from irish mouths and justify by it saying its good business, he's a traitor to everything that our flag represents. remember jacobs 1916, there are many will never forget,but he did.
its a terror iam an irish man born and bred and i am ashamed that i dont know any irish as it was not thought in my school nor was an chance ever offered to learn i wish i could speak it its another part of us that the brits have tryed to destroy iam for irish teaching in every school in ireland least not we forget our heritage.

I'm in love with Ireland and in my country there aren't classes of gaelic even in the universities... the only world that I have learned by heart are a gift to all the proud Irishmen "Tiocfaidh Ar La".
I am studing the I.R.A. and the Irish question very well in order to take an exam about it... but then I read abuot the H maze and Bobby Sands.. just few days after his anniversary... Your Ireland the most wonderful country in the world, I hope it will be soon " a nation once again"

I may be a Brit and I dont know any Gallic but this is a Brilliant anthem better than God Save the Queen
This is just my opinion but I think that Ireland and Britian need to work together now if we want to get any where on the North and are Relations or we could just continue 800 years of blood

I'm not sur Breton is the right word... A Breton, is a people who lives in Britanny, in the east of France. But in Britanny (Bretagne) we are like Ireland during the XIX century, but we are not dominated by United Kingdom, but by France!
If you know the right name of my country and his inhabitants, can you say me please? Thank you.
To me he is, anyway. It's a great pity that the noble name of the IRA and Irish Republicanism has been sullied by the terrorist scum who have operated under the name since. Collins would never have supported the killing of innocent civilians or sectarian hatred, and it pains me to see his name used to support sectarian atrocities.
Collins' IRA "less sectarian" than todays IRs? Nonsense!
Love 'em or hate 'em, the majority of those killed by the Provos were NOT civilians (Look up the figures quoted by the Univ of Ulster's CAIN project)!
It's not "sectarian" to kill combatants, spies, or criminals of all faiths and ethnicities.
-I know most of the fatalities were army personnel. That doesn't change the fact that civilians were deliberately targeted by the IRA. By planting car bombs in predominantly unionist areas, or in pubs in mainland Britain, you're sending out an unequivocable sectarian statement. That's on top of the actual sectarian intimidation many of my friends from both communities experienced during the troubles.
"That doesn't change the fact that civilians were deliberately targeted by the IRA."
As did the old IRA.
"sending out an unequivocable sectarian statement"
Placing most army patrols in Catholic areas or interning 1000s of Cats while interning just 2 Prods are sectarian statements too. How much of the civilians killed by the British army were Catholic Irish as opposed to Ulster Protestants? Also, bombs were placed only in England, not Wales or Scotland...and they're mostly Protestant too.
NO vote = we are still in the EU, like we are now, and the EU must be more accountable to the people of Europe. It stops the runaway power of the EU parliament and its gravy train expenses.
YES vote = no way back, we can't undo mistakes made in the treaty or the EU, our say in EU is halved. Some countries say is doubled.
The mature thing is to stand up and tell EU to correct the problems, not to give in to the accusing tut-tutting of EU politicians trying to tell us we should be embarrassed.
dont know what ya's are fightin about, end of the day, the south ditched the north, left us ta live with the orange cunts, like we had a choice, we were the ones gettin killed, not the south, get yer facts right, we lived it, so it dosn't matter what prick was responsible, they let us go on livin like that up here
it was not 'democratic ' in the true sense of the word since lloyd george had the boundaries changed after being advised that the vote would leave the new state with a catholic majority and for the brits and their friends that was a bit like having 'dirty taigs ' living next to door oneself. The illogical part of the provence of nothern irleand is that they excluded 3 counties of ulster.. Serves you lot right there for what happened you can blame your forefathers for making a appartheid state
Having the North as part of a 32 county Republic would have led to a massive armed uprising by the unionists though, leading to many more deaths. They had to be allowed to stay a part of the UK to avoid huge casualties on both sides of the divide. The 6 counties of the North were the 6 counties that, in 1922, had a unionist majority of the population. Donegal, Monaghan and Cavan had nationalist majorities.
damn the majority in the south just had to ethniclly clense those goons in the wee north, butcher each and everyone of them, or to hell or fuck off back to scotland
@branscoset actually it is Gaeilge, Gaelic is what we call our national sports:) Trust me I live hear. the Gaelic language includes Scottish, Irish and Manx. So to conclude our language is Irish (Gaeilge)
The reason that the Irish Rugby Team have a different anthem is because Ireland has a All-Ireland rugby team but Ireland is still diveded (for the moment anyway).
I was thought that it would be good for the sake of relationships between Prodstants in the north and a Catholic all over the Island if a second Rugby atherm was creathed.
Amhrán na bhFiann is still played when the team play at home.
It's because the Rugby team is mixed. Protestant and Catholic. As the Protestant's don't like the song, we made a new one. Hope that answer's your question.
Sinne Fianna Fáil, atá faoi gheall ag Éirinn, Buíon dár slua thar toinn do ráinig chughainn, Faoi mhóid bheith saor Seantír ár sinsear feasta, Ní fhágfar faoin tíorán ná faoin tráill. Anocht a théam sa bhearna baoil, Le gean ar Ghaeil, chun báis nó saoil, Le gunna scréach faoi lámhach na bpiléar, Seo libh canaig amhrán na bhFiann
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
In English: 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 sireland, Shall shelter the despot or the slave. Tonight we man the "bearna baoil", In Erins cause, come woe or weal, Mid cannons roar and rifles peal, Well chant a soldiers song
Aye the boundary commission was supposed to save our asses in the north by redifining the boarder and transfering big lumps of Tyrone, Armagh and Fermanagh etc out of Northern Ireland to the free state! But nooo..somebody had to shoot Collins and Griffith had a hemorrhage..no fate hasnt been kind to us northerners!:(
The greatest hero this country has ever f**king had!! Unbelievable. Never in my life did I think I'd hear an Irish man say something like this... What a shame...
the north sold themselves out, they voted to remain in the uk, so it was there fault the troubles happened, Collins was a fuckin legend, i suport the IRA but during the civil war they where fighting for indapendance from people who didnt have indapendance, your such a retard
Are you serious? The people in the north that voted to stay in the UK were the Unionist majority that was planted there. Irishmen didn't even have a vote in the north. I'm very glad Mick Collins was shot, he was a total eijet to say yes ti the treaty, any real Irishman would have went with de Valera.
what!!!!!!!!!, devalera was a fuckin handicaped cunt, he rejected the treaty, caused a civil war and a few years later accepted it, he was a fuckin retard, and if any real irish man would have went with devalera, how come they went with Mick, are u tellin me that the IRA could have continued the war. if thats what u believe then your a bigger fuckin retard than i thought you were, and i know we had no say in the north, and we still dont, but we will in a few years, so get over yourself
are you serious? the man who organised most of the IRA military movements versus the man Dev who caused a civil war and wanted to turn the republic into a isolationist bacwater. If he had his way, ireland would still be living in the 1850s, no radio, tv, internet and all or anyhing! Thank God for Lemass and co.

I may be a Brit and I dont know any Gallic but this is a Brilliant anthem better than God Save the Queen
This is just my opinion but I think that Ireland and Britian need to work together now if we want to get any where on the North and are Relations or we could just continue 800 years of blood

what is a breton?
kallemick 2 years ago
I'm not sur Breton is the right word... A Breton, is a people who lives in Britanny, in the east of France. But in Britanny (Bretagne) we are like Ireland during the XIX century, but we are not dominated by United Kingdom, but by France!
If you know the right name of my country and his inhabitants, can you say me please? Thank you.

To me he is, anyway. It's a great pity that the noble name of the IRA and Irish Republicanism has been sullied by the terrorist scum who have operated under the name since. Collins would never have supported the killing of innocent civilians or sectarian hatred, and it pains me to see his name used to support sectarian atrocities.
levanteIRL67592 2 years ago 2
Totally agree
MrSteamboatWillie 2 years ago
Oh please!
Collins' IRA "less sectarian" than todays IRs? Nonsense!
Love 'em or hate 'em, the majority of those killed by the Provos were NOT civilians (Look up the figures quoted by the Univ of Ulster's CAIN project)!
It's not "sectarian" to kill combatants, spies, or criminals of all faiths and ethnicities.
IHatePickingAName 2 years ago
-I know most of the fatalities were army personnel. That doesn't change the fact that civilians were deliberately targeted by the IRA. By planting car bombs in predominantly unionist areas, or in pubs in mainland Britain, you're sending out an unequivocable sectarian statement. That's on top of the actual sectarian intimidation many of my friends from both communities experienced during the troubles.
levanteIRL67592 2 years ago
"That doesn't change the fact that civilians were deliberately targeted by the IRA."
As did the old IRA.
"sending out an unequivocable sectarian statement"
Placing most army patrols in Catholic areas or interning 1000s of Cats while interning just 2 Prods are sectarian statements too. How much of the civilians killed by the British army were Catholic Irish as opposed to Ulster Protestants? Also, bombs were placed only in England, not Wales or Scotland...and they're mostly Protestant too.
IHatePickingAName 2 years ago
And my argument was never that the Protestants were blameless in the matter. The fact that they were sectarian as well is completely irrelevant.

NO vote = we are still in the EU, like we are now, and the EU must be more accountable to the people of Europe. It stops the runaway power of the EU parliament and its gravy train expenses.
YES vote = no way back, we can't undo mistakes made in the treaty or the EU, our say in EU is halved. Some countries say is doubled.
The mature thing is to stand up and tell EU to correct the problems, not to give in to the accusing tut-tutting of EU politicians trying to tell us we should be embarrassed.

dont know what ya's are fightin about, end of the day, the south ditched the north, left us ta live with the orange cunts, like we had a choice, we were the ones gettin killed, not the south, get yer facts right, we lived it, so it dosn't matter what prick was responsible, they let us go on livin like that up here

The North voted by a democratic majority to remain part of the UK. We didn't ditch you, we respected that choice.
levanteIRL67592 2 years ago
it was not 'democratic ' in the true sense of the word since lloyd george had the boundaries changed after being advised that the vote would leave the new state with a catholic majority and for the brits and their friends that was a bit like having 'dirty taigs ' living next to door oneself. The illogical part of the provence of nothern irleand is that they excluded 3 counties of ulster.. Serves you lot right there for what happened you can blame your forefathers for making a appartheid state
v74Bvdmp 2 years ago 3
Having the North as part of a 32 county Republic would have led to a massive armed uprising by the unionists though, leading to many more deaths. They had to be allowed to stay a part of the UK to avoid huge casualties on both sides of the divide. The 6 counties of the North were the 6 counties that, in 1922, had a unionist majority of the population. Donegal, Monaghan and Cavan had nationalist majorities.
levanteIRL67592 2 years ago
damn the majority in the south just had to ethniclly clense those goons in the wee north, butcher each and everyone of them, or to hell or fuck off back to scotland

Question: Why does the Irish Rugby Team have a different anthem, "Ireland's Call"? Not knocking anything... I'm actually curious about the culture.
mage1028 2 years ago 2
its because the north wont accept the souths anthem and visa versa so they just wrote a new one :)

Bosco239 2 years ago
The reason that the Irish Rugby Team have a different anthem is because Ireland has a All-Ireland rugby team but Ireland is still diveded (for the moment anyway).
I was thought that it would be good for the sake of relationships between Prodstants in the north and a Catholic all over the Island if a second Rugby atherm was creathed.
Amhrán na bhFiann is still played when the team play at home.
Bosco239 2 years ago
Ah, I see. That's interesting. I've always found the Irish to be a fascinating culture. Thanks for educating a Canadian.
mage1028 2 years ago
thats what i sayd :-|
Thompsonf1001 2 years ago
It's because the Rugby team is mixed. Protestant and Catholic. As the Protestant's don't like the song, we made a new one. Hope that answer's your question.

the north sold themselves out, they voted to remain in the uk, so it was there fault the troubles happened, Collins was a fuckin legend, i suport the IRA but during the civil war they where fighting for indapendance from people who didnt have indapendance, your such a retard
Mantgm240 2 years ago
Are you serious? The people in the north that voted to stay in the UK were the Unionist majority that was planted there. Irishmen didn't even have a vote in the north. I'm very glad Mick Collins was shot, he was a total eijet to say yes ti the treaty, any real Irishman would have went with de Valera.
BhearnaBhaoil 2 years ago
what!!!!!!!!!, devalera was a fuckin handicaped cunt, he rejected the treaty, caused a civil war and a few years later accepted it, he was a fuckin retard, and if any real irish man would have went with devalera, how come they went with Mick, are u tellin me that the IRA could have continued the war. if thats what u believe then your a bigger fuckin retard than i thought you were, and i know we had no say in the north, and we still dont, but we will in a few years, so get over yourself
