Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile
Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile,
Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile,
Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile
Anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh.
Se do bheatha a bhean bha leanmhar!
B'e ar gcreach tu bheith i ngeibhinn,
Do dhuiche bhrea i seilbh meirleach
'S tu diolta leis na Ghallaibh.
Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile,
Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile,
Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile
Anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh.
Ta Grainne Mhaol ag teacht thar saile,
Oglaigh armtha lei mar gharda;
Gaeil iad fhéin 's ni Gaill na Spainnigh,
'S cuirfid siad ruaig ar Ghallaibh.
Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile,
Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile,
Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile
Anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh.
A bhui le Ri na bhfeart go bhfeiceam,
Muna mbeam beo ina dhiaidh ach seachtain,
Grainne Mhaol agus mile gaiscioch
Ag fogairt faoin ar Ghallaibh.
Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile,
Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile,
Óró, sé do bheatha ‘bhaile
Anois ar theacht an tsamhraidh.

Horo, welcome home
Welcome, woman who was afflicted,
Your being taken was our disaster,
Your fine country occupied by a thief
And you sold by the wogs2
Horo, welcome home,
Horo, welcome home,
Horo, welcome home,
Now that summer has come.
Grainne Mhaol3 is coming across the sea
Lads in arms4 with her for defence;
They are Gaels and neither wogs nor Spaniards5
And they will put the wogs to rout.
Horo, welcome home,
Horo, welcome home,
Horo, welcome home,
Now that summer has come.
May the Lord of fate grant me the luck to see
Were I to live afterwards only for a week
Grainne Mhaol3 and a thousand warriors
Laying the wogs low.
Horo, welcome home,
Horo, welcome home,
Horo, welcome home,
Now that summer has come.
- 1. I get pissed off with translations that have "is coming" as if the Irish were "ag teacht" instead of "ar teachd" - see verse 2, line 1, which genuinely has "is coming"
- 2. ie by the English or by the Scandinavians
- 3. a. b. Irish name of Grace O'Malley
- 4. I think the song was written before 1900, and 1924 is the first recorded use of "òglaigh" for "defence forces" or "soldiers" - although use for "volunteers" dates back at least to to 1913; a few hundred years ago it presumbly meant "young heroes" or "young warriors", and probably continued to mean that until it became "volunteers"; but in context here it might as well mean soldiers
- 5. Why are the Spaniards separated from other foreigners here? Probably because only the Spanish, the Scandinavians and the English were seen as enemies of the Gaels in the late 16th century, which is the time the song is about although not the time it was written
