The "National Anthem of the Isle of Man" (Manx: Arrane Ashoonagh Vannin) was written and composed by William Henry Gill (1839–1923), with the Manx translation by John J. Kneen. It is often referred to by its incipit, "O Land of Our Birth" ("O Halloo Nyn Ghooie" in Manx).

O land of our birth,
O gem of God's earth,
O Island so strong and so fair;
Built firm as Barrule,
Thy Throne of Home Rule
Makes us free as thy sweet mountain air.
