    Gaoth-Sáile an t-ainm atá ar an mbaile a bhfuil comhnuidhe orm. Cill tSeine an pharroiste agus Iorrais an bharuntacht. Timcheall is ceathair is sgór tighthe sa mbaile lé timcheall is leath-sgór tighthe ann fadó. An chlúdach tuighe is mó a bhí ann fadó ach anois an slinn a cuirtear mar cludach de gnathach.
    Sé an fath gur baisteadh an t-ainm sin ar mo bhaile mar gheall ar an ngaoth atá ag teacht ón sáile. Tá timcheall is cuigear sean-daoine sa mbaile:-
    Seán Mach Dhonnchadha (101 bl)
    Maire (Bean) Uí Cinmhachain
    Antoine Bairéad
    Micheal Ó h-Eineachaín (Tomás)
    Áine (Bean) Uí Eineacháin
    Is féidir leó sgéalta a innsint i mBéarla no i nGaeilge. Téigheann na daoine go Americá ón áit seo. Rinneadh amhran uair amháin faoi Gaoi-Saile:- 'Baile Deas Gaoi-Saile'

    Gradh mo croidhe tú Éire deas atá beannuighthe o Naomh Padraic
    Is grádh mo chroidhe an talamh in a bhfuil an seamróg ag fás ann
