[REZOWNO]

Gaelic is the Scottish language you retard not irish

[jtb65]

@REZOWNO Gaelic is a Celtic language, this includes both Scottish Gaelic and Irish Gaelic!!! Who's the retard now???

[ToucanSam023]

I remember that when I was in Ireland a band refused to play this for a American tour group for elderly persons. I, not knowing what the Irish National anthem sounded like, went back to my hotel and listened to it immediately . I cry every time I hear it.

[SuperJackjack13]

Was this sung at a karaoke in a pub? 

[ChloeCarville]

I'm half Irish and it makes me sad that I cannot speak this beautiful language. I must learn someday. :)

[ipodman79]

Come on IRELAND!

[hjaimeg]

people should keep their traditions alive and not them die because it is an inconvenience for them to do so

[xxkelseluvxx]

UP THE IRISH ;D

[shabadoo572]

@monovoxx its a scottish accent

[Monovoxx]

Is it my impression or the voice in the video's got an English accent? Or it's a dialect?And which dialect?

[emmawatsonfan108]

Im from Ireland and Im PROUD!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

@gevanamataka I'm American.

[AceM4rksm4n]

@mattmcnerlin it seems like some times they say some parts slightly differently like in some for fianna some say fee-na an some say fay-na/ and ata some say a-ta vs. a-tall//// chuu-in and one guys says more like queen and so on. i don't know if it is like personal subtle differences or if it is regional since i know live in Ireland

[bredacsi]

@AceM4rksm4n Irish words can sound different depending on what part of the country you're from. irish in a Donegal accent can sound completly different to irish in a Connemara accent and so on.. For a small country we have a massive selection of accents. :-)

[AceM4rksm4n]

i dont speak i word of irish yet i have taught myself how to sing the chorus of this beautiful song with eire og's pronunciation.( damn every singer has there own pronunciations) TAL from USA

[mattmcnerlin]

@AceM4rksm4n its sang more slow here, but the words and pronunciation are exactly the same :S

[BrendanIsCool]

@AceM4rksm4n good on ye :)

I still think Me Ghile Mear would be better but, this one is good too.

[Amarinthstargazer]

How can anyone dislike a national anthem? That's just retarded. It's the national anthem of a country. An entire people. I wish you could see who disliked a video so you can hunt them down and do horribly bad things to them. -_-

[JoeRyanHolland]

@yashil17 'Amhrán na bhFiann' is Irish Gaelic for Soldiers Song

[Mrgunlover2]

@JoeRyanHolland gailge not gaelic

[blacklion1798]

[Irishninja666]

Beautifully sung, Tiocfaidh ár lá 

[breandan789]

Cén fáth go seinntear an curfá ina haonar, gan vearsaí? Why does everyone only sing the chorus? Here's the 1st verse Seo dhibh, a cháirde, duan Óglaigh, Caithréimeach bríomhar ceolmhar, Ár dtinte cnámh go buacach táid, 'S an spéir go mín réaltogach Is fonnmhar faobhrach sinn chun gleo 'S go tiúnmhar glé roimh thíocht do'n ló Fé chiúnas chaomh na hoiche ar seol: Seo libh canaídh Amhrán na bhFiann.

[K7DFA]

@cRaZyYuNi: It's not too late 'till you're last breath has been drawn and it doesn't ever get any easier to start learning anything that you desire to learn.

[cRaZyYuNi]

@K7DFA Yes i really wanna learn ..hehe

but who could teach me?? (: i'll ask in school. maybe they know ~

[LouisaGerMazzurana]

Congratulations for your big victory against Estonia in the relegation match today!!! Awesome. No other country deserves this victory more than Ireland after your stolen world cup in 2010!!! Ireland is a beautiful country with such amazing landscpaes and coasts and very sympathic and charming people. Of course in the last times you have had a lot of problems but i´m sure you will conquer them. We are proud to call you our friends. Best wishes for the future from your friends in Germany

[NicolasHazen]

[XBOXKINGxx]

Damn Gaelic is gona be as dead as latin o_o

[molesticles]

They never taught me this in school... Have had to hum along to my Nation anthem for Years and years. Never bothered to try till lately. What was I thinking.

[molesticles]

Strong accent while he's singing... Where's he from?

[TheEriskay]

@molesticles I'm Scottish and he sounds Scottish to me. If not, I've been away

from Scotland too long! He's probably of Irish descent, like myself.

[TheEriskay]

@MarquisofHumber Well, well we have a bottom feeder here.

[esha776]

ITS NOT GAELIC ITS GAEILGE

[2010wester]

lolz im from belfast and I clearly don't know this how sad

[Skyifictionable]

@2010wester I agree! What is up with us Northerners not learning it? :S

I began learning it a few months back when I realised I knew more of "God Save the Queen" than it, and now know it by heart! (I knew it after about a few days of listening to it a lot) :D Just stick it onto your iPod/phone etc. and listen to it whenever you can and you'll know it in no time.

[lollylucy124]

im irish i remeber haveing to learn this in like 1st class or sumthing :P

[manifestman132]

Tiochfaidh ar la!

[martynolen]

I am learning Irish. And I am teaching my kids. Hopefully they will teach theirs. My contribution to Irish. I love Irish!

[liamobrien06]

@martynolen why would you even bother its a dead language we are made learn it in school and its a pain in the bollocks it serves no purpose

[420cannaman1]

@liamobrien06 the reson it serves no purpose is cuz the britz killed it and maybe ud like to learn it cuz it part of ur culture and maybe if evryone no it it would serve a purpose

[emmawatsonfan108]

@liamobrien06 Im irish and I learn it in school!!!! Its my countrys language and I love it!!!!!

[mcgarrigle131]

[nemafann]

@Xxcutebutpsycoxx Thanks that does help. I appreciate it.

[nemafann]

What a beautiful language. If I listen a couple of times I can sing along. Can anyone tell me what the translation is of what he says at 1:30? And could someone give a approximation of how to pronounce "Gaeilge" ? I would appreciate it. Thanks

[roybuckleytv]

@nemafann

Tiocfaidh ár lá

[nemafann]

@roybuckleytv Thanks for writing it out for me. I appreciate it. I can say it along with him, but I don't know what it means. Could you tell me that. I'd be grateful. Thanks.

[debbieroxs09]

@nemafann Tiochfaidh ar la?

[nemafann]

@debbieroxs09 yes, I don't know what it means. I would appreciate knowing Thanks

[XxcutebutpsycoxX]

@nemafann

"Tiochfaidh ar la" means 'our day will come', it's normally used in reference to uniting Ireland. Hope that helps!

[XxcutebutpsycoxX]

@nemafann

Oh, and Gaelige is pronounced gay-li-guh

:)

[Shockwave474]

I have checked out several YouTube videos of this song today, looking for a really good one, and this one was the best by far. Turns out a good YouTube recording of this is hard to find. Thank you!

[kellymuniz]

Gaelic is a totally different language. One they speak in Scotland, not Ireland. It's Gaeilge in Ireland.

[pastorgeorgem]

@kellymuniz also there is no T In the true Gaeilge language

[RassilonTheOmega]

Tiocfaidh ár lá!!!

[4FabBEATLES]

its not just Ireland- its true of many countries- native languages are dissapearing. its sad, but its not the English's fault in this case or any other country's- its up to the people to keep their own culture alive its not like the Enlgish are forcing the Irish to speak English only

[Teresa52990]

God bless Ireland xxx

[blackpen2011]

@84jgk i think they were just making it up :P

[blackpen2011]

@TheShadowwolf88 how were french opressors of ireland?

[84jgk]

@blackpen2011 I was curious as an answer to that question as well ??? I thought much of the time England was " ruling " the Irish that they were trying the same thing on the other side of the channel as well ???

[TheShadowwolf88]

@blackpen2011

Not Ireland Bretagne The french and english have both opressed their celtic populations!

[alialcollins]

Ah, thanks for the lyrics and the careful enunciation :)

[vmax29]

Not in english, great!

Here in brazil there is only portugueses T_T

[BrixTuohy]

Gaelige

[dubobify]

eh genius gaelic isn't the name of the language its Gaeilge or Irish take your pick, Gaelics an English word

[wachterwachter]

@dubobify

lol

i know but gaelic is closer to the word Gaeilge that can be hard to pronounce for those who dont know it

[celticbhoy746]

@dubobify Im Irish and for the Record ,Gaelic is Gaelic for Irish,and Irish is an english word

[celticbhoy746]

@dubobify Im Irish and for the Record ,Gaeilge is Gaelige for Irish,and Irish is an english word

[evilmick66]

@dubobify If we called every language by it's own word for it's name, then Japanese should only be called Nihongo, Finnish: Soumi, Dutch: Nederlands, German: Deutsch, Spanish: Espanol, French: Francais, Italian: Italiano, etc.

Yes, Gaelic is an English word. So if you're speaking English then you should be able to use the english word for it! If you're speaking Gaelic, then it should be appropriate to use "Gaeilge." That's how ALL languages work.

[MsKaribean]

@evilmick66 ...but the English for Gaeilge is Irish, not Gaelic :-P

[hereisanelf]

@evilmick66 Yes, but the English word "Gaelic" means Scottish Gaelic.

[evilmick66]

@hereisanelf Since when? There's also Manx Gaelic, so why not Irish Gaelic as well? They're all different forms of Gaelic, like Scots and Jamaican Patois are of english. I really don't understand what's so sinful about the word. You guys seem to be almost repelled by it.

"Gaelic" = language of the Gaels. "Gaels" = The dominant Celtic ethnicity of Ireland and their diaspora (such as in Isle of Man and Scotland).

[hereisanelf]

@evilmick66 See, here's the problem. They aren't "patois" of a language, just as English isn't a "patois" of German, or French isn't a "patois" of Latin. They are separate languages, with separate names, that stem from a common root language. Therefore, it's Irish, not Irish Gaelic, just as it's Spanish, not Spanish Latin. The blanket statement "Gaelic" stopped being applicable in the 16th century, which is the supposed date for the breach between the Scottish and Irish languages.

[TheShadowwolf88]

Gaelic was nearly wiped out in Ireland much thank´s to the english!

[wachterwachter]

@TheShadowwolf88

Ok now its an independant country,and still less and less people are interested in it,especially young ones.The point is everyone is proud to be irish but not everyone wants to learn about the heritage and make this language popular again.sad but true

[loxer101]

@wachterwachter another popular heriteige is german thats taking youngs attention

[weemcgill8]

@TheShadowwolf88 No it is not it is strong and growing

[TheShadowwolf88]

@weemcgill8

It is? if that´s the case I´m glad!

But the english/french DID try and exterminate the languages as well as the cultures!

"A country without a past has no future"!

[TheShadowwolf88]

I just cannot understand why those pro english gits say gaelic is "outdated" as languages(there are actually several) How can languages as beautiful as the gaelic ones EVER be anything than beautiful

[wachterwachter]

@TheShadowwolf88

well many people in Ireland itself avoid speaking it or feeling shy or i dunno...

[wachterwachter]

@wachterwachter

Many say that the way they`ve been taught gaelic at school was harsh and not enjoyable,there is smth for the government to think about too

[alialcollins]

@TheShadowwolf88 It's been said that Irish is the best language in the world for both making love and waging war.

[TheShadowwolf88]

@alialcollins

I think the only gaelic I´ve heard have been welsh but I have heard others as well wich I was uncertain of!

Gaelic should be mandatory in schools in ALL "Celtic nations"

It´s their REAL lanuage and if they let it die then their former opressors England and France wins(Both these nations exercized both physical as well as linguistic opression over their celtic/gaelic subjects for centuries)!

[faol0mhor]

@TheShadowwolf88 Gaelic refers to Irish, Manx, and Scottish Gaelic only. Welsh, Cornish, and Breton are not Gaelic languages, they're Brythonic Languages, Gaelic are Goidelic Languages. They are both Branches of Proto-Celtic, but they are different, and are not really related. Why would Gaelic be mandatory in Wales, where Welsh is spoken not Irish/Scottish Gaelic?

[TheShadowwolf88]

@faol0mhor

I meant Celtic I did´nt know how many different languages there were!

[jbjaguar]

@TheShadowwolf88

Actually here in Glasgow Gaelic was only the native language for about 300 years, that's even less than Scots. Considering Glasgow is Scotland's biggest city housing over half the population, it's a bit of a strange idea to call Gaelic our national language.

[hadders81]

come on Ireland!

[privatejizzmiester94]

is maith liom eire

[SLSheehan]

dude..tune that fucking guitar next time...Erin Go Braugh..anyway. ;)

[wachterwachter]

[SLSheehan]

@wachterwachter the vocals are great, just sayin, it's a shame he didn't take 5 minutes to tune his guitar...i'm picky! lol ;)

[wachterwachter]

@SLSheehan

this tune is played in the end of the evening,so i guess he was tired lol :)

[SLSheehan]

@wachterwachter Tired?...stumbling drunk, I ponder. lol... all is forgiven. Thanks for posting and replying.

"Tá fear anseo" - A man is here

cheers :)

[BecauseIJustCan]

Here are the words in english, in hopes that we can stay in tune with our irish roots and be proud to be called irishmen 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 Baoghal In Erin's cause. come woe or weal; Mid cannon's roar and rifle's peal We'll sing the soldier's song.

[THFCCRAIG93]

My family is of Irish descent but Gaelic was lost a long time ago in my family. But I think this video is definantly starting to help me learn the words to the national anthem! Would be great if I can learn it 100% because when I watch football at the pub and its Ireland playing the Irish guys there know it in Gaelic, I only know English :\

Thanks!!!!

[wachterwachter]

@THFCCRAIG93

erinsweb.com/gae_index.html
