Tadhg an Mhargaidh
Seo é Tadhg an Mhargaidh,
Rug sé Dé Luain,
Rugadh Dé Luain é.
(
rug sé = he brought,
rugadh é = he was born)
Quote:
Baisteadh Dé Mairt,
... é
You could of course leave out all the "é"s and put an "a" in front:
a rugadh Dé Luain ("who was born on Monday)
a baisteadh Dé Mairt ...
But "Dé Mairt é" rhymes with "Mhargaidh".
Quote:
Pósta Dé Céadaoin,
Pósadh Dé Céadaoin é
(But you could use verbal adjectives instead of the saorbhriathar in all of the lines
beirthe Dé Luain,
baiste Dé Mairt,
pósta Dé Céadaoin, ...)
Quote:
Buaileadh tinn Déardaoin,
... é
Quote:
D'éirigh sé níos measa Dé hAoine,
Fuair sé bás Dé Sathairn,
I'd use: Cailleadh Dé Sathairn é
(just for the sake of conformity with the rest)
Quote:
Adhlacadh é Dé Domhnaigh.
I'd put "é" at the end here as well.

Seo é an chríoch ar Tadhg an Mhargaidh.
