The "National Anthem of the Isle of Man" (Manx: Arrane Ashoonagh Vannin, [əraːnʲ əʒuːnəx vanənʲ]) was written and composed by William Henry Gill (1839–1923), with the Manx translation by John J. Kneen (1873–1939). It is often referred to by its incipit, "O Land of Our Birth"[1] (Manx: O Halloo Nyn Ghooie, [oː haluː nən ɣu̯iː]).
