    Where could I possibly find text for Irish announcements on Luas tram service in Dublin?

    Google translate if you don't have an Irish speaker to translate or irish English dictionary

    Every announcement on LUAS is bi-lingual.

    Not really sure what the OP is looking for?

    Maybe the OP just wants to see how the names of the stops look written down as it would make it easier to learn them , ie Margadh na Feirme, na Ceithre Cúirteanna etc? i wonder is there an on-line Luas map as Gaeilge

    Wow LorenzoB! That was quick! Go raibh maith agat! Now OP can print the list and use it on his/her journey to match the pronunciation to the written version.

    Thanks to everyone - in fact I know Luas website and Luas stops. But there are announcements like "Last stop" etc. that I was trying to translate and failed - so I thought they may be somewhere there.

    Like "The next stop is.." - "An cead stad eile na An Cloigin Gorm."
    I translated (google) "An chéad stad eile ...".

    "The last stop" I translated "An stad deireanach" (??)

    And I completely gave up "This tram server all stops to Sandyford. Change at Sandyford for tram to Cherywood" ;-)

    I seriously thought it may be already somewhere on internet.
