Tiocfaidh ár lá = Our day will come
/chuck-hee awr law/

A word of warning to all who come seeking this translation. It is ‘unofficially the slogan of the Irish Republican movement’ and could potentially lead to nasty political battles if you don’t watch out. Use at your own risk!

   I’d be happier with

   Beidh ár lá linn.

   Tiocfaidh ár lá is terribly non-idiomatic.
