Gortoz a ran

Gortozet 'm eus, gortozet pell
E skeud teÃ±val tourioÃ¹ gell
E skeud teÃ±val tourioÃ¹ gell

E skeud teÃ±val an tourioÃ¹ glav
C'hwi am gwelo 'c'hortoz atav
C'hwi am gwelo 'c'hortoz atav

Un deiz a vo 'teuio en-dro
Dreist ar morioÃ¹, dreist ar maezioÃ¹
Dreist ar maezioÃ¹, dreist ar morioÃ¹

D'am laerezh war an treujoÃ¹
'Teuio en-dro karget a fru
E skeud teÃ±val an tourioÃ¹ du

'Teuio en-dro an avel c'hlas
Da analaÃ± va c'halon c'hloaz't

Title	I await
Translation English Translated by hanternoz	Target language: English I await I was waiting, waiting for a long time In the dark shadow of brown towers In the dark shadow of brown towers In the dark shadow of rainy towers You will see me waiting forever You will see me waiting forever One day it will come back Over the seas, over the lands Over the lands, over the seas To take me away on the road It will come back full of spindrift In the dark shadow of the black towers Will return the blue wind To inspire my wounded heart
Remarks about the translation	Beautiful song "Gortoz a ran", music & lyrics from Denez Prigent, used in the movie "The Black Hawk Down" (final song). He himself sings this song with the help of Lisa Gerrard. They are amazing. This request is just a part of the whole song. The last word "ch'loaz" has no "'t" at the end. meaning of the forelast sentence: The blue wind will return (to take me away, to inspire my heart)

	Lein จำนวนข้อความ: 3389	I have never heard it but the poetry in this song sounds great! I have added a small note to the translator's notes as I was confused by the way the sentence was written. I thought I might not be the only one but didn't want to 'flatten' the poetry by turning the words around. As I don't speak a word of Breton, I have set a poll in the hope that someone who does can confirm the translation

	hanternoz จำนวนข้อความ: 61	Yes, the last sentence may be a bit confusing, as I intentionally kept in English the original order of the words in Breton to express much the awaiting (intended by the composer). Poetry is always hard to translate! I have tried to keep the poetry and, at the same time, to give a clear understanding. I am glad you feel the poetry! This song is definitively a wonderful creation, both text and music. If you like it, have a try on Youtube, it's easy to find.
