Lamh-làidir

(which I assume is what you meant) is Gaelic for 'violence'. 'Baugh' I have noooo idea; but bàigh (or 'bàidh') means 'kindness'...

Still doesna add up.

It translates to "Two Midgets walk into a bar with an octopus between them ..." when you going to post the rest of the joke?

That's the way I read it. There might be a spelling problem since it's basically
Lamh-laidir abu as the war cry of the McCarthy's and OBrian's

Sorry, I think Ceith has it.

Until Ros or Dai wake up and get in the game, we may never know.
But I'm betting on Ceith's translation.
