Post the lyrics of your national anthem, rate other ones and compare them with yours. Here's mine
"Soldiers are we whose live are pledged to Ireland. Some have come from a land beyond the wave. Sworn to be free, no more our ancient sireland Shall shelter the despot or the slave. Tonight we man the Bearna Baoil* in Erin's cause, come woe or weal. 'Mid cannons roar and rifles peal, We'll chant a soldier's song." This however is only the chorus of the original song, which was also written in English unlike the official version which is in Irish. I'll post the extended lyrics if anyone's interested.

William of Nassau am I, of German blood. Loyal to the fatherland I will remain until I die. A prince of Orange am I, free and fearless. The king of Spain I have always honoured.
To live in fear of God I have always attempted. Because of this I was ousted bereft of my land and my people. But God will direct me like a good instrument. So that I may return to my domain.
Noble and high-born, of imperial descent, Chosen a prince of the empire, Like a pious Christian, for the honoured word of God, I have without hesitation like a fearless hero, ventured my own noble blood.
After this sourness I will receive from God my Lord the sweetness For that longs so much my noble mind which is that I may die with honour in the fields, and gain an eternal realm as a faithful hero.
I want to confess to God, and to his great power that I have never despised the King. except that to God the Lord, the highest Majesty I've been obedient

Du gamla du fria Du fjällhöga nord Du tysta du glädjerika sköna Jag hälsar dig vänaste land uppå jord Din sol din himmel dina ängder gröna Du tronar på minnen från fornstora dar Då ärat ditt namn flög över jorden Jag vet att du äro, och förblir vad du var Ja jag vill leva jag vill dö i norden
Benjamin Reyes
>1.Verse which isnt sung because it was used a lot by the nazis Germany, Germany above all, Above all in the world, When, for protection and defense, It always stands brotherly together. From the Meuse to the Neman, From the Adige to the Belt >2. Verse is also not sung German women, German loyalty, German wine and German song Shall retain in the world Their old beautiful chime And inspire us to noble deeds During all of our life. >The 3. Verse is our national anthem today Unity and justice and freedom For the German fatherland! Towards these let us all strive Brotherly with heart and hand! Unity and justice and freedom Are the foundation of happiness; Flourish in the radiance of this happiness, Flourish, German fatherland!

Lil din l-art ħelwa, l-Omm li tatna isimha, Ħares, Mulej, kif dejjem Int ħarist: Ftakar li lilha bil-oħla dawl libbist.
Agħti, kbir Alla, id-dehen lil min jaħkimha, Rodd il-ħniena lis-sid, saħħa 'l-ħaddiem: Seddaq il-għaqda fil-Maltin u s-sliem
