The Soldier's Song (Amhrán na bhFiann) - Irish Anthem
For St. Patrick's Day (March 17), which is today, I wrote this piano arrangement of the Republic of Ireland's national anthem, "The Soldier's Song." In Irish, it is called "Amhrán na bhFiann." The music was composed by Peadar Kearney and Patrick Heeney, the original English lyrics written by Kearney, and the Irish-language translation, now usually the version heard, by Liam Ó Rinn. The song has three verses, but only the choral refrain is used as the national anthem.
The Presidential Salute, played when the President of Ireland arrives at an official engagement, consists of the first four bars of the national anthem immediately followed by the last five.
