Subject: Please Help With Sounding Out Words!

Dia Dhuit!

I am trying to translate a song (A Stor, A Stor, A Ghra) to sing at a feis at the end of this month. I'm not doing so badly in looking up words on the net and using a guide to Gaelic - but there are a few words I am just not sure of how to say! Can you all help me, please?
I do not need an English translation but rather a "sounds like this" translation for the Gaelic.

For example . . .
When it's written "an dtiocfaidh tu?" I have it sounded out as "an DYUHK-hee too"

The ones I need help pronouncing are (in caps):

* . . . no an BHAFANFAIDH tu?
* . . . ar an MHARGADH
* . . . tu sa BHAILE agam.
* . . . CINNTE
* . . . BHFUIL
* . . . FIDIL
* . . . AICEARRA na bpratai go DTEIMID 'sair an FHIDILEOIR.
* . . . Nach mor a D'ATHRAIGH

Thank you for any help which may be given!

Beannachtai leat,
Adrienne
