  3. Congratulations ! VIVA St. Partick's ! ! ! As an old Patrician myself, I humbly share this honourable recognition. Brings back fond memories of the Centenary Celebrations 50 Golden Years ago. Many will surely recall the occasion which was graced by the President of Pakistan, Field Marshal Mohammad Ayub Khan ! ! !

    St. Patrick’s, St. Patrick’s, rise up with faith ablaze,
    With hope’s pure light disperse the night, and guide our separate ways. “
