Is í an dlúthpháirtíocht cuisle ár sochaí. Tá an nasc eadrainn níos láidre ná a cheapaimid, agus níos láidre ná é sin a dhéanann deighilt eadrainn ó am go ham. Is dúshlán dúinn an domhan casta ina mairimid, ach ní dúshlán níos mó é ná na dúshláin a bhí roimh na glúine a chuaigh romhainn agus ar éirigh leo iad a shárú, ná gluaiseachtaí cróga na ndaoine sin a bhí faoi chois i stair an domhain. Is í mo mhian go leanfaimis ar aghaidh i gcomhar lena chéile, chun fíorphoblacht a bhí mar aisling ag ár sinsear a thógáil, a mbeadh luachanna, féidearthachtaí agus freagrachtaí na haislinge sin cuimsithe ann.

Lá Fhéile Pádraig Sona Duit Wishing you a Happy St. Patrick’s Day

An tUachtarán Micheál D. Ó hUigínn

Our solidarity is the heart beat of our society. Our bonds are stronger than we think, and stronger than that which at times divides us. The complex world in which we live challenges us, but it does not pose greater challenges than those faced and overcome by previous generations, or by brave movements of the oppressed in world history. My wish is that, together, we will continue to seek to build the true republic of which our forebears dreamt, embracing the values, possibilities and responsibilities contained in that dream.
