| Níl mé ach magadh - An Thimpiste - The Accident
Tá timpiste carr idir Sagart Éireanach agus Raibí Giudach lá. (There is an automobile accident one day involving an Irish priest and a Rabbi.) Tagann an bheirt acú amach as a gcarranna agus tuisligh siad go taobh an bothair. (They both get out of their car and stumble over to the side of the road.) ("Áí bhé!" arsa an Raibí. A léitheid de raic é sin!") (The Rabbi says, "Oy vey! What a wreck!") "An bhfuil tú go maith, a Raibí?", cuireann an sagart ceist chuaige, (The priest asks him, "Are you all right, Rabbi?") "Tá ach tá mé ar ballchrith," freagainn an Raibí. (The Rabbi responds, "Yes, but I'm trembling all over.") Togann an sagart flaigín uisce beatha as a chóta agus arsa, (The priest takes a flask of whiskey from his coat and says,) "Seo duit, ól slog de. Deanfaidh sé do neirbhís calm." ("Here, drink some of this. It will calm your nerves.") Togann an Raibí an flaigín agus ólann sé go léir é. (The Rabbi takes the flask and drinks it all down.) "Bhuel, arsa an Raibí, cad béidh muid ag abair leo na gardaí? ("Well, says the Rabbi, what are we going to tell the police?") "Muise," arsa an sagart, "Níl a fhíos agam céard a béidh tú ag abair leo. ("Indeed," says the priest, "I don't know what you'll be tellin' them.) Ach béidh mé ag abair leo gur ní bá mé duine a bhí ag ól." (But I'll be tellin' them I wasn't the one drinkin'.") | |
