Dheanainn Sùgradh Waulking Song
Hi, I am an Irish speaker and I am trying to translate the waulking song 'Dheanainn Sùgradh' into Donegal Irish. The last two verses are giving me trouble as they don't seem to translate as naturally and I can't get a proper sense of their meaning from online translations which contradict each other. The verses are:
Dh'fheumadh pòrsan thigh'n a búth dhith
Ged a bhiodh e crún an cairteal
Ged a bhiodh e crún an óirleach
Dh'fheumadh pòrsan dheth thigh'n dhachaidh
Would anyone be able to give a sense of what is being conveyed in the context of the song.
