pádraigín ní uallacháin - pangur bán (mise ocus pangur bán) كلمات أغنية

messe ocus pangur bán
cechtar nathar fria saindán;
bíth a menma-sam fri seilgg
mu menma céin im saincheirdd

pangur bán and i at work
[… cat and clerk?]
his whole instinct is to hunt
mine to free the meaning pinned

[more than loud, a claim i love][?]
books, thoughts, silence my alcove
happy for me, pangur bán
[child-plays][?] ’round a mouse’s den

next thing an unwary mouse
bares his flank; pangur pounces
next thing lines that held and held
meaning back begin to yield

all the while, his round bright eye
fixes on the world, while i
focus my less piercing gaze
on the challenge of the page

so it goes, to each his own:
no vying, no vexation
taking pleasure, taking pains;
kindred spirits, veterans

day and night, soft purr, soft pad
pangur bán has learnt his trade
day and night, my own hard work
solves the cruxes [?], makes a mark

caraim-se fos, ferr cach clú
oc mu lebrán léir ingnu;
ní foirmtech frimm pangur bán
caraid cesin a maccdán
