<p>The poet strikes again!<br>
<br>
Just kidding. But I've tried to translate a poem.<br>
I just need your ideas about my word choices and ways to express.<br>
<br>
The original from which I translated is in swedish so now I will try <br>
to translate the same one to english for you to understand.<br>
The english translation is probably much mor correct and the gothic <br>
is more freely translated.<br>
<br>
Gothic first:<br>
<br>
Jai žannu agliž<br>
<br>
Jai žannu agliž hvan bruteis bristand.<br>
Duhvź sįinjįi wźzr?<br>
Duhvź bindada alla gaķrnei unsara sō heitō<br>
in žamma frusanin bįitrafalwin?<br>
Hulžs was bruts sa alla wintrus.<br>
Hva ist žata niujō, žatei taķriž jah spraggeiž?<br>
Jai žannu agliž hvan bruteis bristand,<br>
agliž žamma wahsjandin<br>
jah žamma lukandin.<br>
<br>
Jai žannu aglus ist hvan drupans driusand.<br>
Reirands fram karai kauruba eis hahand,<br>
haftjand sik ana taina, swilland, gleidand -<br>
Dalaž ins žinsai kaurus, hvaiwa kliggand.<br>
Aglus wisan unwiss, faurhts jah skaidans,<br>
Aglus ufkunnan diupein žo žinsandein jah haitandein,<br>
nauh bileiban sitands jah žatain skudon -<br>
aglus bileiban wiljan<br>
jah driusan wiljan.<br>
<br>
Žan, hvan wairsist ist jah ni waihts hilpiž,<br>
Bristand swe in wunjai brusteis bagmis.<br>
Žan, hvan ni faurhtei ju žanaseižs haldiž,<br>
driusand in glitmunjai drupans tainis<br>
ufarmaudjand žatei žlahsnanai wesun fram žamma niujin<br>
ufarmaudjand žatei karanai wesun bi fara -<br>
ufkunnun aina stika žo žwastiža mikiliston seinon,<br>
hveiland in žizai triggwein<br>
žizaiei faihvu gaskapjiž.<br>
<br>
And now, here's my affort to english translation:<br>
<br>
Yes it does hurt when sprouts/buds burst.<br>
Why else would the spring hesitate?<br>
Why would all our hot longing<br>
be tied in the frozen bitterpale?<br>
Hidden was the sprout the entire winter.<br>
What's the new, tearing and blasting?<br>
Yes it does hurt when sprouts burst,<br>
hurting for the growing<br>
and the closing<br>
<br>
Yes it's hard when dropps are falling.<br>
Quaking by anxiety they're haning heavily,<br>
clinging by the twig, swelling, gliding<br>
the weight pulling them down, how they cling.<br>
Hard to be uncertain, afraid and devided,<br>
hard to feel the pulling and calling from the depth,<br>
still remain sitting and just shiver<br>
hard to wanting to stay<br>
and wanting to fall<br>
<br>
Then, when it's worst and nothing helps,<br>
bursting, like jubilation, the sprouts of the tree.<br>
Then, when no fear no longer will hold<br>
fall in a glitter the drops of the twig<br>
forget that they were scared by the new<br>
forget that they were anxious about the journey<br>
feel for a second their greatest safety,<br>
resting in the confidence<br>
that creates the world<br>
