Both Romy & Penguiny are correct except for the stress.
The stress is almost always on the first syllable in Irish.'Á' is like an 'aw' sound in English.
'Í' is like a long 'ee.'
And the 'e' at the end is like a soft 'yeh,' 'eh' or 'uh' sound.Thus:
DAW-reen-yeh
or
DAW-reen-uh

I'm fairly sure it's daw-REE-neh.
