Anything but "Erin go bragh", Bullfrog (see numerous other discussions of this phrase).

"Éire abú" is probably the appropriate expression, though I've never heard it used, probably due to declining standards in teaching the language, says this old fogey.

There's also "Scaoil amach na bobailíní" which can be bowdler-translated as "let it rip".
