Turas Siar 189 - Pádraic Ó Maolruaidh as Leitir Fhinnín, ceantar Thuar Mhic Éadaigh, ag caint le Máirtín Mac Donnchadha, RnaG.

Chúig cinn de chloigne.

Five skulls..

'Sea.

Yes.. .

Curtha isteach agus é gearrtha thríd an muineál agus gur fhaigheann tú ann ach an gob agus an cloigeann.

Inserted and it is cut through the neck and all you get there is the beak and the head.

Ó nach aisteach!

Oh, isn't it strange!.

A chaith isteach anois é.

Throw it in now..

Agus iad curtha i bhfolach mar bheidís curtha i bhfolach i bpoll an chlaí.

And them hidden as if they were hidden in the hole of the ditch..

Sin é an chaoi a raibh.

That’s how it was..

Sea

Yes. .

Bhoil, nach iontach an rud é agus ní bhfuair tú cois ná ná sciathán ná rud ar bith eile.

Well, isn’t it a wonderful thing and you didn’t get a foot or a wing or anything else..

Ní bhfuair tú.

You did not get.. .

Sciathán ná rud ar bith eile ná sciatháin a tharraing aníos an domhan.

A wing is nothing else but wings that lifted up the world.

Ach na cloigne.

But the heads.. .

Na cluichí ar deireadh

The games at last. .

Bhuel nach iontach anois nach iontach anois an leagan amach é sin. Meas tú cén mheabhair, cén mheabhair atá le baint as?

Well isn’t that wonderful now, isn’t that a wonderful arrangement now. I wonder what sense, what sense can be made of it?

soiléir nach bhfuil

clear that it is not.
