Tháinig scata géabha isteach ó théamh sáile go cuan eile.
A flock of wild geese came in from the warmth of the sea to another harbour.
Agus ní raibh a fhios ag fear ar bith i ngeilí cé leis na géabhaí.
And no man at the gathering knew to whom the horses belonged.
Thuigeadh siad ár dtír go minic.
They often understood our country.
Agus ansin dá bhfeicfeadh siad é ní théadh siad amach ar an bhfarraige.
And then if they saw it they would not go out on the sea.
Bhí beirt ar an mbaile agus bhí na géabhaí ar dtír.
There were two people at home and the wild geese were ashore.
Agus d'oscail siad seanteach.
And they opened an old house..
Bhí doras ag gach taobh leis.
There was a door at each side of it.
Chaith siad gráinne coirce ar an urlár.
They threw an oat grain on the floor.
Tháinig na géamaí coirce uathu isteach.
The corncrakes came in from them.
Agus isteach leofa ag ithe choirce.
And in with you eating porridge..
Agus fuair fear aige 'chaon doras agus dhún siad na doirsí.
And he got a man at each door and they closed the doors.
