"Long and long ago it was,
before my time,
before your time
and before my father's time.
And if I would have been there then,
I wouldn't be here now.
And even if I did succeed
in being there at both times,
I might even have an old story
or a new story for you.
In those days, the streets were paved with gold,
the roofs were thatched with pancakes
and little birds made their nests in old men's beards"
(from the story "Feidhlim Tonn Ri's Castle" as told by Seámus Ennis)
