An tAthair Mánus Mac Suibhne

óir dhá 'chuile bhád féin

for every boat its own.

ins an oíche

in the night

ar fhaitíos

for fear of

go dtabharfaí an sagart gafa inti

that the priest would be caught in it.

ar gheataí b'fhéidir

on gates maybe

lá arna mhárach suas

The day after tomorrow.

agus 'sén t-ainm a bhéarfaí an cnaipe

and that's the name that would be given to the button.

agus gabhadh an tathair mánas

and the father Manus was captured.

agus tugadh anuas

and was brought down.

go cuan eile dhe

to another harbor of it.

agus

and

amach ón gcaisleán

out of the castle

níl mé

I am not.

ar tharla seo

did this happen
