    “Tá scéal agam le n-aithris ar an mbaintreabhach Peigín Addley...”

    Share Share Post
    Tá sgéal agam le n-aithris ar an mbaintreabhach Peigín Addley
    Tá ar lóisdín ag Tigh Neachtain amuigh ar thaobh an cnuic.
    Gur chuala Tuathail Mhaigh Inse gur bean í ar theastuigh fear uaithí
    Is gur bheannuigh sé ar maidin ann Is d'fiafruigh a raibh sí istigh.
    Séard dubhairt Máire Bhreathnach leis sin í ar an teaghlach í
    Tá súil leat le seacht seachtmhaine is nach fada tá tú amuigh
    Séard dubhairt sé éirigh is sear thú féin,
    go siúbhailidh muid na garranntaí
    Go dtugaidh mé dhuit seanchas ar an áit A bhfuil tú ag dul.
    Má tháinig tú le seanchus is gur bh'é sin a thug an bealach thú,
    Tá sgéala fáighte ceana agam nach bhfuil a't acht caora is bhó
    Go bhfuil tú taobh le garrdha talamhna ní bheathóchadh sé cearc bhacach dhuit
    Is gur indé d'aithris sean-Bheartly dom gur fear thú atá fagháil dole.
