Around.

correction.

Níl an léig timpeall an chart ní chluinfeá.

The league is not around the map you wouldn't hear..

Ní chluinfeá an ghé anois.

You wouldn't hear the goose now.

Tá Corr Mhacha fánach thart, ní aireodh, ní aireofá coileach féin anois thart, ní aireodh, b'fhíor do Stan, ceann acu an choileach anois le fána.

Armagh is desolate around, you wouldn't notice, you wouldn't even notice a rooster around now, you wouldn't notice, it would be true for Stan, one of them is the rooster now gone astray...

Ná ceart.

Not right..

Níl tada anois fágtha. Tá siad uilig imithe. Níl aon rud ar bith thart más thiar de Stanton ar ndóigh. Bhoil níl tá an ceart aige. Tá go leor, tá siad uilig imithe.

There’s nothing left now. They’re all gone. There’s absolutely nothing around except west of Stanton of course. Well no, he’s right. There’s plenty, they’re all gone.

Tá siad glanta ag an bhfeilméaraí agus ag an tractor agus

They are cleaned by the farmers and by the tractor and.

Tá siad glanta.

They are clean.

Tá siad imithe ar 'chuile chaoi. Níl ann anois ach an t-éan amháin, an turcaí.

They are gone in any case. Now there is only the one bird, the turkey.

'Sea.

Yes..

Agus eh

And eh.

Ní fheicfidh tú é sin, níl a fhios agam cén fáth a bhfuil an méid sin féin acu sin ann agus an bhfuil an tóir atá orthu aimsir na Nollag, ar ndóigh, bhoil tiocfaidh an lá, creidim go mbeidh rud éigin eile.

You won’t see that, I don’t know why they even have that much of those there and whether they are in demand at Christmas time, of course, well the day will come, I believe there will be something else..

Ab é an t-éan is fhearr leat féin é, ab é?

Is it your own favourite bird, is it?
