    As an Iranian I would say I probably died as an Irish man and reincarnated in Iran and travel all over the world.
    Long live Irish and their fighting souls that can never accept being subject of any oppression

    This is to the tune of the Scottish war song "Harlaw", a song about two clans fighting in Scotland. The best version of Harlaw is by The Corries. I do reccomend.

    This is based on an old Scottish song, "The Battle of Harlaw": "An did you come frae the hielands man, and did you come a' the way?/And did you see MacDonald and his men, as they marched frae Skye?"
    Back around 1979 I bought a Folkways LP album (vinyl) called something like, "England's Vietnam: Songs of the IRA." Great record. It includes a better version of this song, better in my opinion because it's less syncopated and thus more virile and rousing. More true to the Scottish original.

      SAS is short for Shitty asshole soldiers because they could literally never do anything right. They had to randomly murder civilians because they were afraid of the IRA.
