Transcript
Bhí fear fadó ann. Agus phós sé. Agus ní rabh aige ach triúr clainne. Agus cailleadh é. Agus (bhog an faoistean) sa teach. Agus maraíodh cráin mhór mhuice dhon sagart. Agus nuair a bhí sé ag tabhairt faoistean dhon chéad mhac d'fhiafraigh sé dhó cén t-ainm a bhí ar a athair.
"Níl a fhios agamsa," a deir sé, "mara bhfuil a fhios ag an dara ceann é."
D'fhiafraigh sé dhon dara mac é.
"Níl a fhios agamsa," a deir sé, "mara bhfuil a fhios ag an gceann is óige."
D'fhiafraigh sé dhon cheann is óige.
"M'anam 'on deabhal," a deir sé, "nach aon athair amháin a bhí a'inn."
Thug sé faoistean dhóib. Agus thug sé faoistean gach a rabh sa teach ann. Agus thug sé faoistin gach a rabh sa teach ann. Agus leagadh anuas cráin mhór mhuice ag an sagart. Agus d'fhiafraigh an sagart, "Céard í seo?"
Dúirt siad gur cráin mhór mhuice a mharaigh sé dhó.
"Ní íosfaidh mise," a deir sé.
"Mara n-íosfaidh," a deir sé, "íosfaidh muid féin í."
Agus d'imigh gach a rabh sa teach ann abhaile. Agus chuaigh an sagart abhaile. Agus d'ith siad féin an chráin mhuice.
