Amhrán na bhFiannSinne Fianna Fáil, Atá fé gheall ag
Éirinn,buion dár sluaThar toinn do ráinig chugainn,Fé mhóid bheith saor.Sean tír ár sinsir feastaNí fhagfar fé'n tiorán ná fé'n tráilAnocht a théam sa bhearna bhaoil,Le gean ar Ghaeil chun báis nó saoilLe gunaí scréach fé lámhach na bpiléarSeo libh canaídh Amhrán na bhFiann.
