  1. An Madra Dubh

    Share Share Post
    Bhí beirt fhear ag dul abhaile ó bheith ag sgoruidheacht oidhche agus b'éigin dóibh dul trí pairc na bhfeictí púcaí. Bhí bothán beag ar barra na páirce agus bhí sean-bhean ann agus bhí roinnt beag cearca aici ac ní raibh aon coileach aici.
    Bhí an bhean amuich an oidhche seo agus do rith an madra dubh síos an páirc. Do ghlaoidh an bhean ar an gcoileach. Rith an madra agus rug sé ar colpa an fhir agus muna mbeadh an bhean agus an coileach d'iiosfadh sé é féin ar fad. Do dhein sí an bhérsa so:-
    "Tráthnóinín beag déanach is méa g déanamh mo mhachtnaimh
    Do bhuail umam beirt fear is do shaoras a n-anam.
    Didil dí déró dam"
