Dublin's land, to natives (4)

I believe the answer is:

eire

'dublin's land to natives' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for eire that I've seen before include "EU country" , "Breakaway state" , "Gaelic name for Republic of Ireland" , "Irish name for Ireland" , "Southern Ireland" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
