'''Warming Up to You''' | |||
Toiréir Gruaid | |||
== | [...] | ||
Though I know you will wither as a corpse, [Or: Even when you have withered as a corpse] | |||
I still gladly bask in your warmth, [Or: I would still bask in memories of your warmth] | |||
For the same warmth nurtures curiosity, | |||
The leaves of knowledge - | |||
A garden that you have planted in this plot of land, | |||
and forever will keep. | |||
