This was posted by ABN Seo at Facebook, and I have no objection if it becomes the official version.

Irish, you remember if the girl is in the band? Or did she just help out here?

I like what she brought. She seems super excited, like she really wants to meet those Mets. She swung an air bat during "knocking those home runs over the wall" and she even did a two-finger sports fan whistle for crissakes. She's better than OK.

A bunch of singers on here , Shane McGowan , Gary Og and I think that's his GF Rachel Fitzgerald speaking Gaelic.

The song is based on "Mise Eire( I am Ireland) by Republican revolutionary leader Pádraic Pearse.

That's the Gaelic poem you here the girl speaking so beautifully.

Mise Éire:
Sine mé ná an Chailleach Bhéarra.
Mór mo ghlóir:
Mé a rug Cú Chulainn cróga.
Mór mo náire:
Mo chlann féin a dhíol a máthair.
Mór mo phian:
Bithnaimhde do mo shíorchiapadh.
Mór mo bhrón:
D'éag an dream inar chuireas dóchas.
Mise Éire:
Uaigní mé ná an Chailleach Bhéarra.z

Who's that around :50 in? Sounds really really old, or drunk maybe, or both. The girl reading is great.
