    Ellan Vannin (the Manx-language name of the Isle of Man) is a poem and song, often referred to as "the alternative Manx national anthem", the words of which were written by Eliza Craven Green in 1854 and later set to music by someone called either J. Townsend or F. H. Townend (sources vary).
    The Manx-language name Ellan Vannin is commonly mispronounced in renditions of the song, including in the Bee Gees version, since written Manx uses an orthography based on Welsh rather than Irish/Scots gaelic, which does not accurately transcribe the "ʲə" sound found in the word for "island" in spoken Manx Gaelic. The correct pronunciation is [ˈɛlʲən ˈvanɪn].
    Teks ny Gaelg:
    Tra ta'n laa souree ec jerrey
    As imneaghyn lhie ersooyl
    mish my hoie fo ny rollageyn,
    slane my lomarcan as skee
    Eisht ta girree gollrish ashlish,
    Loandyr gial as dooghyssagh
    she oo hene o Ellan Vannin,
    Lesh croink glassey rish y cheayn.
    Ta mee clashtyn tharmane tonnyn
    Myr t'ad nish paagey yn traie ;
    As heese dowin fo'n ushtey geayney
    Kiaulleeagh foast ta'n ven-varrey ;
    As ta'n Ellan soilshean aalin
    Myr ve ayns my aegid hene ;
    My heer deyr, shenn Ellan Vannin
    Lesh croink glassey rish y cheayn.
    Nish ta smooinaght millish meiyghagh
    Cheet myr kiaulleeaght gys my chree ;
    Jeh ny cree'ghyn va ayns Mannin
    Foddey roie hug graih da mee ;
    Ta mee coyrt lesh jeir as bannaght
    Nish my smooinaght share dhyt hene ;
    My heer deyr, shenn Ellan Vannin,
    Lesh croink glassey rish y cheayn.

    Wonderful melody far superior to the "Official" Anthem. My memories of frequent visits to the Island in my youth are played out by this version. God Bless the Isle of Man.

    Interesting fact: this version of the "alternative Manx anthem", similar to that of the original written by Eliza Craven Green in 1854, is performed by the late Robin Gibb (died May 2012), who was one of the Bee Gees (the only surviving member of which is Barry). They are of Manx origin. Recorded in 1997, and then released and re-released in 1999 as a single, it is performed for Isle of Man charities, and is included in their world tours as a show of pride for their place of birth.
