Recording Information
An rud ar rud naofa a bhí ann 'Sea.
It was something sacred, yes.
Na seandaoiní ag rá le lá garbh anois.
The old people saying it's a rough day now..
Sna báid a thógáil isteach go hInis Gé dhá mbeadh sé gar rógharbh.
Bringing the boats into Inis Gé if it was too rough nearby.
Ba iarr ort an naomhóg a thabhairt amach as seáint.
You were asked to take the currach out of the shed.
An spéir sa gheimhreadh dhi ghlac seanbhua.
The winter sky took on an old victory.
An bhfaca tú daoine dhá dhéanamh?
Did you see people doing it?
Ní fhaca, ní fhaca mé aon naomhóg arís.
I did not see, I did not see any currach again..
Agus níl a fhios agat cé as a bhí sé déanta.
And you don't know what it was made from.
Ach caithfidh sé gur chreid na daoine go mór ann.
But it must be that the people believed in it greatly.
