Nothing particularly texan about that 'charm', it's quite derivative of Atila the hun who no doubt copied it from somebody else .... but the hell with all those people, this is el día de San Patricio -

The irish figure large in the story of La Raza and of this continent - the last representative of the virreyes, who signed the spanish recognition of mexicana independence, and then declared himself on the spot a mexicano, was named O'donojú, clearly a castellano spelling of O'Donohue .... but the name San Patricio figures directly, in el Batallón San Patricio, those brave patriots who fought against slavery and oppression of catholics in the 1846-8 war - ite.ie

Here they are honoured by the Cámara - cddhcu.gob.mx

.. by Zedillo - zedillo.presidencia.gob.mx

This was their flag - crwflags.com

We do not forget such heroism ... pues - ¡Erin Go Bragh!, y ¡Viva San Patricio!
