Ní bheidh a leithéid arís ann
We shall not see his like again.
We shall not see his like again. The great eulogy line, the highest compliment Irish grief pays. Choose it for someone genuinely singular; the wording changes with who is mourned, so check the record before anything is made.
The wording is quoted exactly from the record and its cited source; personalisation touches only your own names and date, never the Irish.
About this saying
The great Irish eulogy line, made world-famous as the closing sentence of Muiris Ó Súilleabháin’s and Tomás Ó Criomhthain’s Blasket memoirs in the form "ní bheidh ár leithéidí arís ann" (our like will not be there again) mourning not a person but a whole way of life. Said of one person, it is the highest compliment Irish grief pays.
