Beatha Teanga

Ní thabharfaidh mé maithiúnas duit riamh, má loiteann tú dom í,

má ghoideann tú uaim í,

mar is ea do chiúnas ná an piléar a scaoiltear i gcroí mo chultúr,

i gcroí mo theangan,

i mo chroí-sa féin.

I will never forgive you, if you ruin it for me,

if you steal it from me,

because your silence is the bullet that is shot into the heart of my culture,

into the heart of my language,

into my own heart.
