I have that song on my computer, and am almost positive that it was written for the movie. As in, I vaguely recall reading an interview with the composer. Cool tune though, good for dancing jigs.
Turns out, contrary to what you'd believe from that nonensical attempt at sheet music above, that it's really simple.
If this is it, I could get the main tunes (more than one if you count the slower bit(s) as separate tune(s)) into ABC notation in about 10 minutes. I'm not going to, though, 'cos ... sheesh, if this is it, what on Earth do you want *this* for?
Someone else less intolerant may be willing to help ...
And I am sorry - I usually do my best to help, but there are limits ...
Hello all, in my attempt to find the sheet music for this, I stumbled across this version. I know a lot of you were looking for it in abc. I myself don't understand a word of what it all means. I hope it helps.
I think I know which one you are referring to, it is NOT on the soundtrack, or the score, or anything else for that matter, other than the movie itself, but it seems that they're saying something like, "gresor gans mi loso delect" ? which i could only roughly translate, as it is in more than one language (italian, german and latin, so it seems)... so far from what i can tell, it means something to do with a clan of/and/or brothers, uh, taking out the trash?! makes sense though, really...
Searched for this for the past few hours. I believe this is what you were looking for. It's not in the soundtrack and its damn near impossible to find.
If anyone's still looking for The Blood of Cú Chulainn, I transcribed the main themes last night for a Saint P gig.

Re: boondock saints
Can anyone make this into a tune here on thesession?
Can't seem to work this one out on my own.
Would be much appreciated.

Must admit, that sheet referenced above makes absolutely no sense to me. God knows what it means ... and even then, i think he'd struggle ...
