    Share Share Tweet
    Tá daoine áiridhe ann atá abalta 'Ruadh' a léigheas. 'Órtha an Ruaidh' a tugtar air. Do réir an tseanchuis is é Mac Dé é féin a léigheas an Ruadh chéad uair. Bhí sé féin 's a Mháthair bheannuighthe a' siubhal lá amháin. Casadh bó ortha a rabh 'Ruadh' uirthi. Sé an bhó an chéad ainmhidhe a rabh sé uirthi.
    "Léigheas an bhó a Mháthair," arsa'n Mac.
    "Léigheas féin í, ós leat a thig," arsan'n Mháthair.
    "Úr go rabh a h-údh agus críon go rabh a h-at."
    ....
    Tá deilín fada le seo a deir an té a bhfuil an t-órtha aige ach níl fhios agam an chuid eile.
    Le h-im guirt a grútheas an léigheas, ó tharla gur ar an bhó bhí sé chéad uair.
