fir-chlis
sf The Northern lights, aurora borealis, “merry dancers.” [Preceded by the art. na]. An uair a bhios na fir-chlis ri mire 's gann nach dèan iad milleadh, when the merry dancers play they are like to slay —the playfulness of the merry-dancers is supposed to end occasionally in quite a serious fight. Next morning, when children see red patches of lichen on the stones, they say among themselves, thug na fir chlis fuil á càch a chéile an-raoir, the merry-dancers bled each other last night. [The appearance of these lights in the sky is considered a sign of the approach of unsettled weather].
