Titel
Lord, have mercy!
Oversættelse
Engelsk

Oversat af Lein
Sproget, der skal oversættes til: Engelsk

Lord, have mercy!
Lord, let me see clearly.
Forgive me, lords, have mercy.
Forgive me for my hands bringing about the curse.
Bemærkninger til oversættelsen
Last line: forgive me (for the fact) that the curse comes true through my hands.

'The curse' here doesn't refer to any specific curse, I think; rather to 'that which is bad'.

The requester explains in the notes that this is a little prayer in which the Christian God and Greek gods both figure. She would like to know the pronunciation, if possible.

Hi Lein,

I think "give me vision" is more accurate.

OK. It just sounds weird in English.

I agree. What the original really means is "lucidity" or "clearness".

What about: "discernment"?

If we are going for less than literal, why not 'let me see clearly'?

Well, if we go poetic, it would be .."wide my eyes ..."

I'm afraid "wide" is not a verb. We could say:
"open my eyes wide". Is that what you mean?

yes, but when in a poem, I believe you can make an adjective, a verb...
