TRANSLATION PROJECT: The Blind Hermit

[Miestrâ Schivâ, UrN]

Hello,

I would like to ask you for help with a linguistic project.

I have a short poem which lends itself well to comparing languages because its structure makes the various semantic components of sentences readily identifiable. This is the poem:

The Blind Hermit

I have no friends; my friends are my senses.

I have no enemies; my enemy is absent-mindedness.

I have no allies; the stick that guides my steps is my ally.

I have no companions; the sea is my companion.

I have no songs; I hear the birds in the wood.

I know no tales; the wind and the rain whisper to me.

I have no books; my memories are my books.

I have no games; my game is life.

I have no mother; my mother are the plants and the streams that sustain me.

I have no father; the cave that shelters me is my father.

I have neither master nor disciples; I am both myself.

I have no quarrel with anyone; I rarely speak.

I do not fall sick; the only true disease is doubt.

I pray to none; my belief is that which I know.





Could you help me get the poem translated into Talossan?

I would greatly appreciate your help. For my part, I have “The Blind Hermit” in other languages and dialects and will be happy to show you the file with all the translations if you are interested.

Best regards,

Alejandro Rodón
