Flann for Éirinn (Flann over Ireland)


Flann for Éirinn i tig thocaid Túathail Techtmair,
do nach - forcraid forba niäd náir co nertgail.

Rop slán, rop suthain a ríge, réim co abra,
noco-géba brí na Bregda rí bas amra.

Filleam glúine, tócbam láma – lúad cen chréidim,
corop suthain slicht no-d-bágaimm: Flann for Éirinn.

(English)

Flann over Ireland from the blessed house of Túathal Techtmar,
where the heredity of a noble warrior with mighty bravery is not exaggerated.

May his kingship be healthy, may it last for long, a course as broad as the borders;
no greater king shall ever seize the hill-top or Brega.

Let us bend our knees, let us raise our hands – give praise with no decrease,
so that the family line I here boast, may last forever: Flann over Ireland.
