Mo Ghra Sa- Idir luibini Flashcards
The poet is mocking her lover
Ag magadh faoi thréithe a grá
He is not like a lover
Níl sé cosúil le bláth
It’s a funny image and it is very realistic
Is íomhá ghreannmhar é sin agus tá sé an-réadúil
The eyes of her lover are not beautiful
Níl súile a leannáin álainn
The poet says they are slanted
Dair an file go bhuile a shúile cam
His hair is rough like barbed wire
Tá a ghruaig garbh cosúil le sreang deilgní
But that doesn’t upset her
Ach ní chuireann sé sin isteach uirthi
At the end of the poem we can see why she is in love with him
Ag d’aireadh an dáin feicimid cén fáth go bhfuil sí ngrá leis
He gives her apples and grapes when he is in good humour
Tugann sé úlla di agus tugann sé caora fíniúna di nuair a bhíonn sé I ndea-ghiumar
Because he looks after her
Mar sin, tugann sé aire di
Slanted
A shúile cam
Barbed wire
Sreang deilgni
Grapes
Caora fíniúna di
Suspicious
Amhras orainn
