Ní raibh mórán carranna thart, déarfainn, san am a bhfuair seisean an chéad charr.
There weren't many cars around, I'd say, at the time he got his first car.
Bhfuil 'fhios a'd an chéad rud a bhí aici sin?
Do you know the first thing she had?.
Agus fuair siad scaitheamh bád seoil.
And they got a spell of sailing.
Bhuel, bhí mo chroí-sa briste nuair a d'fhás mé suas.
Well, my heart was broken when I grew up.
Nach raibh an bád seoil i gcónaí aige, d'oscail, d'fhoghlaim le seoladh aimsir.
Didn't he always have the sailboat, opened, learned to sail weather.
Agus arbh fhearr leat an bád seoil a bheith a bheith a bheith ag stiúradh an bháid seoil ná a bheith ag tiomáint eile oraibh?
And would you prefer to be steering the sailboat rather than driving another on you?
Bó ab fhearr muise á bó ab fhearr b'fhearr i bhfad.
A better cow indeed, a better cow would be much better.
