He was born on the Aran Islands in 1910
Rugadh é ar Inis Mór Oileán Aránn Co na Gaillimhe sa bhliain 1910
He is famous as one of the biggest Irish poets
Tá clú agus cáil ar bainte amach aige mar cheann de mhór fhilí na Gaeilge
He stayed on the island until he was 18
D’fhág sé an t-oileán nuair a bhí sé ocht mbliana deag d’aois
He wrote a novel “Feamann Bhealtaine” in the year 1961

He died in Dublin in the year 1988
Fuair sé bás i mBaile Átha Cliah sa bhliain 1988
Love for his home place is the theme of the poem
Grá an fhile dá áit dhúchais is téama an dáin seo
The poet tells us the locals don’t feel the pressure of life
Insíonn an file dúinn sa dán seo nár mhothaigh muintir and oileán aon strus nó brú an tsaoil
There is nothing better than the beauty of the countryside on a lovely warm day
Níl aon rud níos fearr dar liom na áilleacht na tuaithe ar lá brea brothallach sa gciúneas shéimh
In the first image we see a farmer working in the field
Sa chéad íomhá, feicimid feirmeoir ag obair sa pháírc
In the second image, we see the man collecting seaweed on the beach
Sa dara íomhá, feicimid fear ag bailiú feamainne ar an trá
In the third image we see the friendship between them and them working
Sa tríú íomhá, feicimid an cairdeas eatarthu agus iad ag obair
In the fourth image men come homeafter fishing
Sa ceathrú íomhá feicimid na fir ag teacht isteach sna báid tar éis lá ag iascaireacht
The poet uses simple and sharp natural language
Baineann an file úsáid as friotal simplí agus nádurtha sa dán seo.
The magical colours and sounds add to the perfect and and peaceful atmosphere
Cuireann na dáthanna agus na fuaimeanna draíochtúla le hátmaisféar síochánta foirfe agus suaimhneach an oileán
He uses the sound from the sea so that we fall in love with his native place
Úsáideann sé fuaimeanna na fairraige ionas go dtimid i ngrá lena áit dhúchais
