  1. An tIasc Mór

    Share Share Post
    An t-Iasc mór.
    Bhí amadán ann uair amháin agus níor bhféidir leis aon obair a dhéanamh. Chaitheadh sé gach lá ag fiadhach coinín nó ag iasgaireacht i Loch Measga. Bhí slat breágh iasgaigh aige agus is minic a ghabhadh sé bric mhóra ins an loch.
    Lá amháin nuair bhí sé ag iascaireacht ghabh sé bradán mór agus thug sé leis abhaile é agus bród an-mhór air. D'itheadar an bradán agus mholadar an t-iascaire go mór.
    Cúpla lá in a dhiaidh sin nuair do bhí an t-amadán ag dul ag iascaireacht arís casadh iascaire eile air, agus d'fhiafruigh dhe an raibh an bradán a ghabh sé an-mhór.
    "O," ars an t-amadán, "nuair tharraing mé amach as an uisce é do thuit an t-uisce troigh san loch."
