Dóchas Linn Naomh Pádraig

Dóchas linn Naomh Pádraig,
Aspal mór na hÉireann,
Ainm oirdhearc gléigeal,
Solas mór an tsaoil é,
'Sé do cloígh na draoithe,
Croíthe dúrtha gan aon mhaith,
D'ísligh dream an díomas
Trí neart Dé ár dtréanfhlaith.

Sléibhte, gleannta, maigthe,
'S bailte mór' na hÉireann,
Ghlan sé iad go deo dúinn,
Míle glóir dár naomh dhíl,
Iarraimid ort, a Phádraig,
Guí orainne Gaela,
Dia linn lá 'gus oíche
'S Pádraig Aspal Éireann.

Hail Glorious Saint Patrick

Hail, glorious Saint Patrick, dear saint of our Isle,
On us thy poor children bestow a sweet smile;
And now thou art high in the mansions above,
On Érin's green valleys look down in thy love.

On Erin's green valleys, on Erin's green valleys
On Erin's green valleys look down in thy love.

Ever bless and defend the dear land of our birth,
Where the shamrock still blooms as when thou were on earth,
And our hearts shall still burn, wherever we roam,
For God and Saint Patrick and our native home.

For God and Saint Patrick, for God and Saint Patrick.
For God and Saint Patrick and our native home.
For God and Saint Patrick, for God and Saint Patrick.
For God and Saint Patrick and our native home.
