Tá mé ag éad libh.

I'm thinking of the Connemara song An Spáilpín Fánach:

Dhá bhean déag a bhí ag éad is ag iomaidh liom, ag súil le tairbhe mo laidhre.
"There were twelve women envying and vying for me, hoping for the benefit of my prong."

Also tá mé in éad libh or tá éad agam libh.



A pitchfork for lifting hay, of course. :LOL:
