Na Rubálaidhe

bhain sé lena cnaganna

he knocked on it with his hooves

agus isteach leis an doras

and in went the door

agus tháinic an bhata isteach ina dhiaidh

and the stick came in after him

agus d'imigh an dá rubálaidhe a bhí ann amach

and the two robbers who were in it, went out

Chuaigh an fear i dteach ní na rubálaidhe

the man went into the house of the robbers things

agus chuir sé a learí (?) é

and he put himself to rest

agus ghabh sé 'a chodladh

and he went to sleep

Ghabh an cat sa bhuaigh agus sa gcoirnéal

the cat managed to get the corner

Ghabh gandal ghé ag a' drisúir

the gandel went to the dresser

agus sheas an caora ag bun an doras

and the sheep stood at the bottom of the door

agus gabh an tarbh, taobh thíos don doras

and the bull went under the door

agus gabh an coileach suas, mullach an tigh, taobh amuigh

and the rooster went up, on top of the house, outside

nuair a bhí na rubálaidhe, imigh tamaill ón teach

when the robbers were gone a while from the house

dúirt fear acu go dtiontófadh sé ar ais, le haghaidh an t-airgead

one of them said he would turn back, on account of the money

thiontaigh sé

he turned around
