Mo chara:

This is an adaptation of a poem written by Eibhlin Dhubh Ni Chonaill, the widow of Airt Ui Laoghaire. Unfortunately, I can't easily add the accents. Sorry.

"Mo chara is mo lao thu!
Is aisling tri neallaibh
do deanaigh arier dom
i gCorcaigh go deanach
ar leaba im aonar."

The translation is something like:

"My friend and my darling [lit. calf]!
An obscured vision in a dream
was shown to me last night
at a late hour, in Cork
in my lonely bed."
