Some comments on the 2nd stanza:<br>
<br>
> Jai žannu aglus ist hvan drupans driusand.<br>
<br>
I think I'd make the adjective neuter, like this: 'Jai, aglu ist, žan<br>
drupans driusand.'  Compare: hvaiwa aglu ist žaim hugjandam afar<br>
faihau in žiudangardja gudis galeižan (Mk 10:24).  And I'd use 'žan'<br>
or 'žanei' for "when", except where it's a direct or indirect question<br>
- e.g. direct: hvan managans habaiž hlaibans' "how many loaves have<br>
you got?" (Mk 8:5).  I can't find an example of an indirect question<br>
with 'hvan' (that is, dependent on a verb meaning "ask", "know",<br>
"understand"<wbr>, "discover", "prove"), but there are examples with other<br>
interrogative pronouns: ak fražjandans hva sijai wilja fraujins "but<br>
understanding what the will of the Lord is" (Eph 5:17).<br>
<br>
> Reirands fram karai kauruba eis hahand,<br>
<br>
Masculine nominative plural 'reirandans'<wbr>.<br>
<br>
> haftjand sik ana taina, swilland, gleidand -<br>
<br>
haftjand sik taina/ansta (with dative and no preposition, e.g.<br>
'haftjandans godamma' "sticking to what is good" (R 12:9)).<br>
<br>
> Dalaž ins žinsai kaurus, hvaiwa kliggand.<br>
<br>
'kaurei ins dalaž atžinsiž' - compare the combinations 'dalaž<br>
atsteigan', 'dalaž atgaggan'.<br>
<br>
> Aglus wisan unwiss, faurhts jah skaidans,<br>
<br>
Again, I'd use neuter, "it is hard": 'Aglu unwiss wisan, jah faurhts<br>
jah skaidans,'<br>
<br>
> Aglus ufkunnan diupein žo žinsandein jah haitandein,<br>
<br>
You could use infinitives:<br>
<br>
aglu diupiža/diupein ufkunnan atžinsan jah athaitan<br>
aglu diupižai/diupein gaumjan atžinsan jah athaitan<br>
<br>
The most common form is 'diupiža', but 'diupei' is also attested.<br>
<br>
> nauh bileiban sitands jah žatain skudon -<br>
<br>
swežauh nauh sitan jah žatainei reiran,<br>
<br>
*'skudon'? or *'skudjan' (OHG 'scuttan' > NHG 'schütten') or<br>
*'skudison' (OHG 'scutisōn') or *'skutilon' (OHG 'scutilōn')?  Is the<br>
double 'dd' in Swedish 'skudda' due to it being a loanword from West<br>
Germanic (Low German 'schudden'), where gemination was the rule before<br>
/j/.  There's also a version with long [u:] in the root, represented<br>
in MDu. 'schūderen' and NHG 'schaudern'.<br>
<br>
Alternatives: *'skakan', *'skilban'.<br>
<br>
> aglus bileiban wiljan<br>
> jah driusan wiljan.<br>
<br>
aglu bileiban wiljan<br>
jah driusan wiljan.<br>
<br>
I'd translate it the same way, except with neuter for the adjective. <br>
We have a few other choices for "stay": 'wisan', 'gawisan', 'gastandan'.<br>
