So, not quite halfway through this video, where the guy first encounters Peig, at one point she says:

You only had to read it,
That was my life!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GX401x03O-E

"That was my life" sounds like she said "Beidh mo shaolsa."

But doesn't beigh mean "will be," not was? Why wasn't this "Bhí mo shaolsa?"

I'm getting the impression that I completely misheard what she really said... Anybody?

GRMA!

"Ní raibh ortsa ach léamh mar gheall air. Ba é mo shaolsa" a dúirt sí. Tá an chopail ag teastáil anseo, ar ndóigh.

Whoops... Cinnte, an chopail anseo, ar ndóigh... go raibh maith agat, a Dhonncha! My bad.

"B'shin mo shaolsa," a dúirt sí, sílim.
