Geibheann: Mothuchain Flashcards
Sadness, frustration and hoplessness are the emotions this poem wakens in me.
Is iad brón, frustrachas agus éadóchas na mothúcháin a
mhúsclaíonn an dán seo ionam.
It puts sadness on me the tiger trapped in captivity in the zoo and it really sadness me the poet trapped and her very sick.
Cuireann sé brón orm an tíogar a shamhlú i ngéibheann sa sú, agus cuireann sé brón an domhain orm an file a shamhlú
agus í go dona tinn.
It is clear she is in the depths of despair.
Is léir go bhfuil sí in umar na haimléise.
Her courage is lost and she has to handle her own personal tourment.
Tá a misneach caillte aici agus tá uirthi a crá pearsanta a láimhsiú léi féin.
People came to see her but they couldn’t help her.
Tagann daoine chun féachaint uirthi, ach ní féidir leo cuidiú léi.
They couldn’t set her free.
Ní féidir leo í a ligean soar.
The poet felt like she was trapped in her life.
Mothaíonn an file go bhfuil sí teanntaithe ina saol.
She has no escape unfortunatley.
Níl bealach éalaithe aici, ar an drochuair.
The poet creates the hopless atmosphere clearly
Cruthaíonn an file atmaisféar an éadóchais go paiteanta.
The reader has pity for the animal and the poet.
Tá trua ag an léitheoir don ainmhí, agus don fhile.
