No. You've mixed up nouns and verbs, and mispelled one of the words.

Consider that when you give a translation on this forum, it may end up inked permanently on someone's body, engraved on jewelry, or something like that. You shouldn't offer translations unless you're actually learning the language, and you should warn people to wait for confirmation. You'll notice that we all include warnings with our translations, usually in our signatures.

Possibly you could use:

Mair. Gráigh. Damhsaigh.
Live. Love. Dance.

However, in Irish, it's more common to say "give love" rather than to use "love" as a verb. Since that would destroy the symmetry of the sentence, I would suggest rephrasing all of them as nouns.

An Saol, an Grá, An Damhsa.
Life, love, dance.

I've used the article because these are abstract nouns.

"An tSaol"????? get back up the chocolate tree.

Now wombat, he did one or the other

Rinc is the verb for "ag rince", mair is spelled right as well.

Fixed now.
