Locations
Tháinig muid an taobh seo d'Inis Gé.
We came to this side of Inis Gé.
Bhí an ghaoth glan díreach romhainn thoir aduaidh.
The wind was blowing straight towards us from the northeast.
Agus ní mba léir duitse a dhath.
And nothing would be clear to you..
Ach amháin na totracha geala a bhí
Except for the bright eggs that were.
Ar an bhfarraige ag briseadh leis an ngála.
On the sea breaking with the gale..
Isteach í ar leabhar go dtáinig muid go Tóin an Dúin.
She entered it in a book that we came to Tóin an Dúin.
Leag muid ansin ó dheas arís í ná go dtáinig muid go dtí béal mór.
We then headed south again until we came to a big mouth..
Seo coiréal cúng atá ag teacht aniar idir carraigeacha.
This is a narrow channel coming in from the west between rocks.
Níor mhór duit léargas ar na hoileáin le theacht ann.
You would need an insight into the islands to come there.
