The man is not like the flower of the iris.
Níl an fear cosúil le bláth na n-airní.
His eyes are not a musical stream.
Ní haon sruthán ceolmhar iad a shúile.
His eyes are too close together.
Tá a shúile róchóngarach dá chéile.
A man’s hair is not like silk.
Níl gruaig an fhir cosúil le síoda.
His hair is like the black hair of Shakespeare’s woman.
Tá a ghruaig cosúil le gruaig dhubh bhean Shakespeare.
The man’s hair is like barbed wire.
Tá gruaig an fhir cosúil le wire deilgní.
The kind of person who is kind, generous, romantic and loving.
An cineál duine cneasta, fial, rómánsúil agus grámhar.
The man in this poem is a loving person because he brings apples and berries from the vine.
Duine grámhar is ea an fear sa dán seo mar tugann sé úlla agus caora fíniúna.
Her love is not too colorful.
Níl a grá ródhathúil.
Her love is not like the flower that grows on the hawthorn in the garden.
Níl a grá cosúil leis an mbláth a fhásann ar an sceach gheal sa ghairdín.
Daisies will grow out of his ears when he is buried.
Fásfaidh na nóiníní as a chluasa nuair a bheidh sé curtha san uaigh.
His eyes don’t look very nice.
Níl cuma ródheas ar a shúile.
The man’s hair is not very pretty.
Níl gruaig an fhir ródheas.
