Go mbeidh síochán againn.

That we may have peace..

Le cúnamh Naomh Pádraig agus cúnamh Dé go dtarlóidh sé sin.

With the help of Saint Patrick and the help of God, may that happen.

Bhí tú ag rá gur ag do ag do mháthair mhór nach ea agus ag do mhuintir féin a chuala tú an phaidir.

You were saying that it was from your grandmother, wasn’t it, and from your own people that you heard the prayer.

Óh 'sea go deimhin na seandaoiní.

Oh yes indeed the old people..

Págánaigh a bhí ann, an dtuigeann tú Pages a thugadh siad ar an mBéarla.

Nuair a tháinig sé go hÉirinn
