Ní bhíonn éinne ag dul an bealach bhfuil fhios agat san áit a mbíonn siad.
No one goes the way you know to the place where they are.
Anois luaigh tú luaigh tú ansin cén cén t-ainm a thug tú ar an traenach?
Now you mention, you mention then what, what name did you give to the train?
Nuair a chuaigh muid go dtí na scoile ar dtús.
When we first went to the schools..
Bhí muid ag foghlaim na bhfoclaí úra Gaeilge seo.
We were learning these new Irish words.
Agus chuir sé sin amú muid nuair a tháinig muid abhaile agus an an tornach linn.
And that delayed us when we came home and the thunder with us.
Muid á sheinnt sa leabhar á thaispeáint do na sean seandream a bhí beo an uair sin.
We playing it in the book showing it to the old ancient people who were alive at that time.
Ní fhaca siad agus níor airigh siad agus ní bhfaighidh siad riamh a leithéid de éan ná gaineamh.
They did not see and they did not hear and they will never find the like of such a bird or sand.
Níor chuala siad an focal traenach.
They did not hear the word "traenach."
Shíl siad gur focal strainséara eicínt a bhí air.
They thought it was some stranger's word.
