You'll need to learn this boys,

Amhrán na bhFiann


Sinne Fianna Fáil
A tá fé gheall ag Éirinn,
buion dár slua
Thar toinn do ráinig chugainn,
Fé mhóid bheith saor.
Sean tír ár sinsir feasta
Ní fhagfar fé'n tiorán ná fé'n tráil
Anocht a théam sa bhearna bhaoil,
Le gean ar Ghaeil chun báis nó saoil
Le guna screach fé lámhach na bpiléar
Seo libh canaídh Amhrán na bhFiann.

Proud of you. Go Ireland! Proud to be associated with Dulwich Hill who will singly handedly be championing Ireland's hope, through Tim and Simon, and take Ireland one step closer to the 2012 Olympics.

To the new Paddies. Welcome to the clan.
