Móthúcháin (Leaving Cert Irish): Flashcards

Tá grá láidir idir Lir agus a chéad bhean, agus idir Lir agus a leanaí. Tá na páistí an-dílis do Lir, agus is léir go bhfuil grá gan teorainn eatarthu. (There is strong love between Lir and his first wife, and especially between Lir and his children. He adores them deeply and their bond is unbreakable.)

Tá éad i gcroí Aoife nuair a fheiceann sí cé chomh mór is atá grá Lir dá pháistí. Tá an éad sin chomh láidir sin go ndéanann sí draíocht uafásach orthu. (Aoife becomes jealous of how much Lir loves his children. Her jealousy is so powerful that it drives her to place a terrible curse on them.)

Tá brón ar Lir tar éis bás a bhean. Tá fearg air nuair a thuigeann sé gur Aoife a chuir an mallacht. Tá trua ag daoine agus ag an léitheoir do na páistí. Cé go bhfuil siad mallaithe, coimeádann na páistí dóchas go mbeidh deireadh leis lá éigin. (Lir is sorrowful after his wife's death. He is angry when he learns Aoife cursed the children. People and the reader feel pity for the children. Despite being cursed, the children hold on to hope.)
