A Flourish for Ethan: on the occassion of his naming, 21.11.2019
There is a piece of Gaelic wisdom which goes
Mol an óige agus tiocfaidh sí.
It translates to English as
Praise the young and they will flourish.
Dá bhrí sin, molaim Ethan agus tiochfaidh sé.
Thus, I praise Ethan and he will flourish,
Mar atá sé tagtha go dtí an lá seo
As he has flourished to this day.
Molaim Zoë, Brian agus Arlo agus tiochfaidh siadsan.
I praise Zoë, Brian and Arlo and they will flourish.
Agus sinne, fosta. Comhluadar Ethan.
And us, too. Ethan’s family and company.
Molaim muidne agus tiochfaidh muid. Le Ethan.
I praise us and we will flourish. With Ethan.
