| Translation of previous torch |
Asida talks of the future
The moon wandered in the forest,
and there she has created all existing things,
they dwelled under the many stars.
There the moon had rested in the forest.
She dances, is drunk in the head and so rests.
To this branch to that branch,
To this pain to that pain,
That event frees the mind.
They will be born again, their soul will depart again. |

Asida 'er di'll oënt
Asida talk.pres.s of_the future
No context for the proper name has been provided. I have assumed it to
be feminine, which softens the follow verb.
Lla llyn erraf in ill fforest,
The moon wander.imperf.s in the forest
e lla+ sa-dd a criad llo h-eisistent
thud,
and there/then she have.imperf.s create.pp the.pl existing (ones)
all.pl
There is an error here. [a] is have.present.singular.
ys ddifurafant gwo fullt di llo h-ystuil.
they dwell.imperf.pl.3 under many (of) the.pl stars
Qualifiers before a noun, such as many, come with the preposition 'di'.
Lla+ lla llyn er cufad in ill fforest.
There/then the moon be.imperf.s rest.pp in the forest
[er] should have been [es], a mistake I did not correct.
Sa ddans, inuifriw i lla dest e si chuf.
She dance.pres.s be_drunk.pres.s in the head and so rest.pres.s
'to be drunk in the head' is idiomatic for 'to become dizzy'
A'll rham ci a'll rham lla+,
To_the branch here to_the branch there
In English the first preposition would be 'from', but I'm experimenting
with idiom here.
a lla buin ci a lla buin lla+,
to the pain here to the pain there
ill ewent lla+ llifr ill ment.
the event there make_free.pres.s the mind/memory
Ys nascerant anghor, sew enef berthira anghor.
They be_born.fut.pl.3 again one's_own soul depart.fut.s again. |
