Trust
I thought it would be interesting to translate a poem into Gaeilge (Native Irish language)
for you! Here it is in English and Irish and if you want to hear me reading it in Irish
here is the link:

TRUST
In your world
I walk my heart and soul
On paving stones
I stroll as I grow old
My body
I will give to you
Forever until dust
And in your arms
I place my tender trust
My honour
And my worldly deeds
Are yours
Precious treasure
That your heart secures
In your world
Is where I want to lay
With you by me
And forever stay
IONTAOBHAS
I do domhan
Siúlóid mé mo chroí agus spiorad
Ar clocha pábhála
Spaisteoireacht mé mar a fhásann mé d'aois
Mo chorp
Beidh mé a thabhairt duit
Go dtí go Deo deannaigh
Agus i do armas
Ait mé mo mhuinín tairisceana
Mo onóir
Agus mo nGníomhas domhan
An bhfuil mise
óir lómhara
Go chroí do slán
I do domhan
An bhfuil áit ar mhaith liom a leagan
Le tú ag dom
Agus fan go deo
