Thank you for the reply! Would you be able to tell me the direct translation of what you said please? It looks like quite a few words, so I assume it must be said very differently in Irish.

Beacán a thoghairm is the translation that you requested.
beeuhcawn ah hogarm is the phonetic pronunciation.
Tá mé ag foghlaim i gcónaí. With translations, it is best to wait for someone more adept than I to confirm.

I would go for


An té a thoghraíonn fáis na haon oíche.

The one who summons mushrooms

the Irish for mushroom is 'grows in one night' (more or less)
It's a job that's never started that takes the longest to finish.

Sorry -I had not come across beacán before as a word for mushroom- but I see it is perfectly ok

we were taught mushroom= fás an aon oíche


A shorter translation could therefore be

An té a thoghraíonn beacáin
It's a job that's never started that takes the longest to finish.
