Listen to Brefni O'Reilly

Notes

Is one of the landed names of Cavan and of old Brefni before it. The O'Reillys have spread far and wide to wherever the immigrant has ventured in his many meanderings. This title could well be our proud county's battlecry, or the triumphant chant of a Cavan footballer scoring a winning goal at Croake Park.
