Turas Siar 425 - Micheál Mac Graith as Cill Ghallagáin, go ndéana Dia trócaire ar a anam, faoi agallamh ag Caitlín Ní Chonghóile as Ceathrú na gCloch.

Nuair a thuigfinn an treabhadh

When I would understand the ploughing.

Ag iompar aníos an charraig

Carrying up the rock.

Shínse isteach muid i tosach.

We stretched in at the start..

Agus bhí an bheirt eile ag dheireadh an deiridh ag iarraidh í crochadh suas.

And the other two at the very end were trying to hang her up.

Agus dhá bhfaigheann cead imeacht dá ghabhfainn isteach.

And if he got permission to leave, if I were to go in...

Bheirfinn ndéanfainn scagadh, a Athair.

I would give, I would not sift, Father..

Ach bhí Fianna mo ghuailleacha.

But there were Fianna at my shoulders..

Roimhe ghabhainn ghabhfainn cead amach.

Before I would go, I would ask for permission out.

Ach

But.

Choinnigh muid ag imeacht ar chaoi ar bith.

We kept going anyway.

Rinneadh cúpla punta, ní dhearna mé aon chnap, ní raibh, bhí gliomaigh an uair sin, ghabhfá dosaen gliomach ar ocht scilleacha.

A couple of pounds were made, I didn’t make any lump, there wasn’t, there were lobsters then, you’d get a dozen lobsters for eight shillings..

Anois tá siad

Now they are.

Cúpla punt an punta.

A couple of pounds per pound.

Deir sé liom:

He says to me:.

Portaigh adhmaid a bhí agaibh ab ea?

Were they wooden bogs you had?
