Irish Translation Forum

Hi,

Can anybody translate this into the old Irish of the Druid using Gaels or has that language been lost altogether?

Across the sea will come Adze-head, crazed in the head,
his cloak with hole for the head, his stick bent in the head.
He will chant impieties from a table in the front of his house;
all his people will answer: ‘so be it, so be it'

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks

S.

Old Irish is primarily an academic subject. It's completely different from Modern Irish (just as the English of Beowulf is completely different from Contemporary English). Your best bet for something like this is to contact the linguistics department of a university.
