Looks like other teams are fans of this song, some saying;
best support in the Championship,
class from a Leicester fan,
love this always enjoy hearing it from another Leicester fan,
great to see an away crowd come to Carrow Rd and sing like that from a Norwich fan,
wonderful support from a Preston fan,
and that's just a few comments, we should sing it alot more imo :ayatollah:

Men of Harlech stop your dreaming
Can't you see their spear points gleaming
See their warrior pennants streaming
To this battlefield
Men of Harlech stand ye steady
It cannot be ever said ye
For the battle were not ready
Welshmen will not yield
From the hills rebounding
Let this song be sounding
Summon all at Cambria's call
The mighty force surrounding
Men of Harlech on to glory
This will ever be your story
Keep these burning words before ye
Welshmen will not yield

Bought Zulu on DVD the other day and sat down and watched the whole film which is an absolute classic and the singing of Men of Harlech send shivers down your spine I always sing the words at the CCS but feel such an idiot because everyone around me is going na na na na na na clap clap :roll:

Like others have suggested we either need to print off the words and distribute them around or get the words up on the big screen everyone singing this at the CCS would be awesome :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

there needs to be a print out handed around at an away game with the words on it. Its nuts to think how long this song has been sung at cardiff games and we haven't learnt the words

Here is the real version. The other words were made up for the film Zulu.
