Post your country's national anthem :mrgreen:

Seo dhibh a cháirde duan Óglaigh,

Cathréimeach briomhar ceolmhar,

Ár dtinte cnámh go buacach táid,

'S an spéir go min 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.

Curfá:

Sinne Fianna Fáil

A tá fé gheall ag Éirinn,

buion dár slua

Thar toinn do ráinig chugainn,

Fé mhóid bheith saor.

Sean tír ár sinsir feasta

Ní fhagfar fé'n tiorán ná fé'n tráil

Anocht a théam sa bhearna bhaoil,

Le gean ar Ghaeil chun báis nó saoil

Le guna screach fé lámhach na bpiléar

Seo libh canaídh Amhrán na bhFiann.

Cois bánta réidhe, ar árdaibh sléibhe,

Ba bhuachach ár sinsir romhainn,

Ag lámhach go tréan fé'n sár-bhrat séin

Tá thuas sa ghaoith go seolta

Ba dhúchas riamh d'ár gcine cháidh

Gan iompáil siar ó imirt áir,

'S ag siúl mar iad i gcoinne námhad

Seo libh, canaídh Amhrán na bhFiann.

Curfá

A bhuíon nách fann d'fhuil Ghaeil is Gall,

Sin breacadh lae na saoirse,

Ta scéimhle 's scanradh i gcroíthe namhad,

Roimh ranna laochra ár dtire.

Ár dtinte is tréith gan spréach anois,

Sin luisne ghlé san spéir anoir,

'S an bíobha i raon na bpiléar agaibh:

Seo libh, canaídh Amhrán na bhFiann.

Curfá

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn's early light,

What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming?

Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thro' the perilous fight'

O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming.

And the rockets red glare, the bombs bursting in air,

Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.

Oh, say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

On the shore dimly seen, thro' the mists of the deep,

Where the foe's haughty host in dread silence reposes,

What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,

As it fitfully blows, half conceals, half discloses?

Now it catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,

In full glory reflected, now shines on the stream;

'Tis the star-spangled banner: oh, long may it wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

And where is that band who so vauntingly swore

That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion

A home and a country should leave us no more?

Their blood has wash'd out their foul footstep's pollution.

No refuge could save the hireling and slave

From the terror of flight or the gloom of the grave,

And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Oh, thus be it ever when free men shall stand,

Between their loved homes and the war's desolation;

Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land

Praise the Power that has made and preserved us as a nation.

Then conquer we must, when our cause is just,

And this be our motto: "In God is our trust";

And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave

O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Uh, well I have three to narrow it down to the least (I have a complex background.LOL) Lilacs pretty much got the first one....

Now the other two....

Al combate, corred, Bayameses,

Que la Patria os contempla orgullosa;

No temáis una muerte gloriosa,

Que morir por la Patria es vivir.

En cadenas vivir, es vivir

En afrenta y oprobio sumido;

Del clarín escuchad el sonido;

¡A las armas, valientes, corred!

Eternal Father, Bless our land

Guide us with thy mighty hand

Keep us free from evil powers

Be our light through countless hours

To our leaders, Great Defender,

Grant true wisdom from above

Justice, truth be ours forever

Jamaica, land we love

Jamaica, Jamaica, Jamaica, land we love

Teach us true respect for all

Stir response to duty's call

Strengthen us the weak to cherish

Give us vision lest we perish

Knowledge send us, Heavenly Father,

Grant true wisdom from above

Justice, truth be ours forever

Jamaica, land we love

Jamaica, Jamaica, Jamaica, land we love

Australians all let us rejoice,

For we are young and free;

We've golden soil and wealth for toil,

Our home is girt by sea.

Our land abounds in Nature's gifts

Of beauty rich and rare;

In hist'ry's page, let ev'ry stage

Advance Australia fair.

In joyful strains then let us sing,

"Advance Australia Fair."

Beneath our radiant Southern Cross

We'll toil with hearts and hands;

To make this Commonwealth of ours

Renowned of all the lands;

For those who've come across the seas

We've boundless plains to share;

With courage let us all combine

To Advance Australia fair.

In joyful strains then let us sing,

"Advance Australia Fair."

-I kinda think it's a very boring anthem, and the fact is that most Australians don't know the second verse, because we hardly ever sing it.

YOU'RE FROM IRELAND TOO. Well my anthem I say is the irish one as well because I refuse to say I am part of the UK (scottish to be exact) which has those bloody english and I got cousens in Ireland who I am moving in with pretty soon. So yeah im irish/scottish/native american pretty much. Still I am not part of the USA or the UK in my eyes even though I have citizenship of both countries.

Heres mine: (well the two first verses, the others I don't think I have heard off before)

Du gamla, Du fria, Du fjällhöga nord

Du tysta, Du glädjerika sköna!

Jag hälsar Dig, vänaste land uppå jord,

Din sol, Din himmel, Dina ängder gröna.

Din sol, Din himmel, Dina ängder gröna.

Du tronar på minnen från fornstora dar,

då ärat Ditt namn flög över jorden.

Jag vet att Du är och Du blir vad du var.

Ja, jag vill leva jag vill dö i Norden.

Ja, jag vill leva jag vill dö i Norden.

Jag städs vill dig tjäna mitt älskade land,

din trohet till döden vill jag svära.

Din rätt, skall jag värna, med håg och med hand,

din fana, högt den bragderika bära.

din fana, högt den bragderika bära.

Med Gud skall jag kämpa, för hem och för härd,

för Sverige, den kära fosterjorden.

Jag byter Dig ej, mot allt i en värld

Nej, jag vill leva jag vill dö i Norden.

Nej, jag vill leva jag vill dö i Norden.
