an spailpín fánacht

  1. there was a time and there was great respect by everyone for poets in Ireland
    Bhí uair ann agus bhí meas ag gach duine ar na filí in éirinn
  2. the poets were very rich and they worked for the patrons
    bhí na filí an-saibhir agus bhí said ag obair do na pátrúin
  3. when the english came into power in the country, the patrons left the country or were killed and because of that there was no jobs for the poets
    nuair a tháinig na Sasanaigh i gcumhacht sa tír, d'fhág na pátrúin an tír nó fuair siad bás agus mar sin ní raibh post ar bith ag na filí.
  4. the poets were travelling from place to place looking for work as labourers
    bhí ar na filí taisteal ó áit go háit sa tír ag lorg oibre mar spailpíní
  5. of course they were unhappy with their life
    ar ndóigh bhí siad míshasta leis an saol seo.
  6. we don't know who wrote this poem and we think its from the end of the 18th century
    ní fios cé a chum an dan cáiliúil seo agus ceaptar gur cumadh é ag deireadh an 18ú haois
  7. there was a french revolution going on at this time and the irish were hoping for help from the french to get the english out
    bhí Réabhlóid na Fraince ar siúl ag an am sin agus bhí na gaeil ag súil le cabhair ón bhFrainc chun na Sasanaigh a chur amach as an tír
  8. the poets had a hard life
    bhí saol crua ag an bhfile
  9. there were very poor and there wasnt the slightlest respect for them
    tá sé beo bocht agus níl meas madra ag éinne air
  10. they were travelling around looking for work
    tá sé ag taisteal timpeall na tíre ag lorg oibre
  11. they were sick and tired of their life
    bhí sé tinn tuirseach den saol atá aige
  12. this poem shows shame and anger
    baineann an dán seo le náire agus fearg
  13. there was huge shame on the labourers to have a job like this because there was no respect for them
    bhí náire an domhain ar an spailpín go bhfuil post mar sin aige mar nach bhfuil meas madra ag éinne air
  14. they were often sick because they were out early in the morning looking for work
    bíonn sé tinn go minic mar go mbíonn sé amuigh go moch ar maidin ag lorg oibre
  15. he was working for farmers
    bíonn sé ag obair do na feirmeoirí
  16. he goes to hiring fairs
    téann sé go dtí an margadh híreálta
  17. patriocht poem and exile poem where the poet gives us an insight on the life for the poor people in the 18th century
    dán tírghrá agus dán deoraíochta é ina dtugann an file léiriú dúinn ar chruatan an tsaoil i measc na cosmhuintire san 18ú haois
  18. hard cruel slavish life of the labourer is the theme of this poem
    is é saol crua sclábhúil an spailpín téama an dáin seo
  19. the poet would like a different life
    ba mhaith leis an bhfile malairt saoil a bheith aige
  20. hes ready to fight against the english
    tá sé réidh chun dul ag troid i gcoinne na Sasanach
  21. we get a sad image of the labourer in this poem
    faighimid íomhá bhrónach den spailpín sa dán seo
  22. he works for the farmers and he gets grass or corn
    bíonn sé ag obair do na feirmeoirí, agus baineann sé féar nó arbhar
  23. hes good at this work and he's proud of himself
    tá sé go maith ag an obair seo agus tá sé bródúil as féin
