Eist le mo chroÃ
Is é leanúint ailsing'
Is é ag gabháil go háit
Nach eol ach dom féin
NÃ heol do mo chroÃ
Ach an aisling a leanúint
Nach féidir ach liomsa a haithint
Nach féidir ach liomsa a haithint | Remarks about the translation | |

Listen to my heart
It follows the vision
It is capturing the place
Myself, I just don't know
Don't know in my heart
but the vision continues
It's impossible for me to tell
It's impossible for me to tell
| Remarks about the translation | Not too sure if I got it totally right, my Irish is very basic and the text is very lyric. |

I should be ashamed of myself here as I am Irish by birth but do not speak a word of Gaelic (well one or two but I don't know how to write them).
I must admit that I heve never even been to Ireland!!

AoifeNumber of messages: 3 | It's just that some of the words aren't translated properly. Also, it is translated very directly, so a lot of the phrases don't really make sense in Irish. It's close enough though. | | |

I have a feeling that you have evaluated the wrong way round, by which I mean, you are basing yourself on the English text in order to check out the Irish one. Am I right?
The original text (the "source text" is the one that is written in Irish. The translation that has been done is into English (the target language), so I need to know if the English phrases are a loyal translation from the Irish.
Its a bit confusing at first, but you'll get used to the jargon after a few visits
Thanks for helping and welcome to cucumis Hope you enjoy it on here.
