National Anthem of Brittany - Bro Gozh ma Zadoù - Bretagne

Bro Gozh ma Zadoù (Breton for Old Land of My Fathers) is the national anthem of Brittany. It is sung to the same tune as that of the national anthem of Wales, Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau, and has similar words. The Cornish anthem, Bro Goth Agan Tasow, is also sung to the same tune.

Text :

Ni, Breizhiz a galon, karomp hon gwir Vro !
Brudet eo an Arvor dre ar bed tro-do.
Dispont kreiz ar brezel, hon tadoù ken mat,
A skuilhas eviti o gwad.
Chorus
O Breizh ! ma Bro ! Me 'gar ma Bro. (Oh Brittany, my country! I love my crountry.)
Tra ma vo 'r mor 'vel mur 'n he zro. (As long as the sea will be a wall around her.)
Ra vezo digabestr ma Bro ! (Be free my country!)
Breizh, douar ar sent kozh, douar ar varzhed,
N'eus Bro all a garan kement 'barzh ar bed.
Pep menez, pep traoñienn, d'am c'halon zo kaer,
Enno 'kousk meur a Vreizhad taer !
Chorus
Ar Vretoned zo tud kalet ha kreñv;
N'eus pobl ken kalonek a-zindan an neñv,
Gwerz trist, son dudius a ziwan eno,
O ! pegen kaer ec'h out, ma Bro !
Chorus
Mar d'eo bet trec'het Breizh er brezelioù bras,
He Yezh a zo bepred ken beo ha bizkoazh.
He c'halon birvidik a lamm c'hoazh 'n he c'hreiz,
Dihunet out bremañ, ma Breizh !
Alternative chorus:
O Breizh ! Ma Bro ! Me a gar ma Bro ! Tra ma vo ar mor evel mur en he zro ; Ra vezo digabestr ma Bro !

A lot of people don't understand there is such a big chunk of France which is Celtic. They think of France as very French and in fact, we are many old countries, cultures, languages and kingdoms. I am American but became French and all this has been learning for me. I have roots in Alsace and family in Brittany and I really appreciate it. I feel quite a link with Scots and may have some English blood of some sort, perhaps via indentured servitude in the 19th c.

Je suis breton et français. Je suis fier d'être français,je suis fier d'être breton.

Mouette alors comme dirait ma grand mère....il n'y a pas plus Breton qu'un breton hors de Bretagne.... Qu'il soit plus hors de lui que la Bretagne elle-même...mouette alors.
