[gothic-l] Re: Blessings in Gothic

[Dicentis a roellingua@gmail.com [gothic-l]]

Latin:

Procul recedant somnia
Et noctium fantasmata
Hostemque nostrum comprime
Ne polluantur corpora.

English:
At a distance come back the dreams
And during the night the spirit
And our enemy doesn't hold back,
He doesn't pollute the bodies.

Gothic:
Fairraþro gawandjand swifnans
Jah naht ahman
Jah unsar fijands analatiþ
Ni gamainiþ  leika
