Na mac Pice agus na cliatháin liath agus sin iad na buachaillí atá ag déanamh an slad má gheobhaidh siad seans.
The sons of Pice and the grey wings and those are the boys who are doing the havoc if they get a chance.
Sin é go dona dona go leor ach tá sé sin tá sé chomh tá na préitheoirí sin ná na gray backs mar a tugtar orthu.
That's very bad indeed but that's it that's how those preachers are those gray backs as they are called.
Tá siad sin i bhfad níos measa ná ná ná an sionnach.
They are much worse than the fox.
Tá siad ag fanacht nuair atá an caoirigh ag breith ar taobh claí ná
They are waiting when the sheep are giving birth beside the hedge.
Tum sogaí ná áit a mbeadh faitíos ná rud éigin mar sin.
Dive gently into a place where there would be no fear or something like that.
Agus caora ar bith a bhfuil cóip aici, tá siad ag fanacht agus gheobhaidh siad suas go dtí smut a chaora.
And any sheep that has a copy, they are waiting and they will get up to the sheep's snout.
Bhí mé ag earc orthu.
I was watching them.
Agus beidh siad istigh in achar bomaite agus an timlacán agus na súile pioctha amach as as as má gheobhaidh siad sin.
And they will be inside in a matter of minutes and the eyes picked out of them if they get that.
By dad so caithfidh tú súil a choinneáil ar chuile chaora agus agus a bheith lena taobh.
Because of that, you have to keep an eye on every sheep and be by its side.
Bhuel bhuel bhuel sin é an chaoi atá sé anois.
Well well well that's the way it is now.
Sin é an chaoi atá sé anois fada ó shin fadó. Ní raibh ní raibh ní raibh
That's the way it is now long ago long ago. There wasn't there wasn't there wasn't.
