Traduction de «great irish poet » (Anglais → Français) :

I can merely quote an old Irish poet who said: ‘He came as a stranger and we saw fear, yet through his work, through his time, through his efforts, but most of all through his honesty, he became our friend and now we miss his passing, but most importantly of all, we walk in his footsteps for they lead us to greatness’.
Je citerai simplement un vieux poète irlandais qui a dit: «Il vint en étranger et nous vîmes la peur, pourtant, grâce à son travail, son temps, ses efforts, mais par-dessus tout son honnêteté, il devint notre ami et à présent nous le regrettons, mais le plus important est que nous marchions sur ses traces parce qu’elles nous mènent à la grandeur».

Nor does it ignore the fact that, in the words of the great irish poet, Yeats : "Too long a sacrifice/Can make a stone of the heart".
Elle sait aussi, pour reprendre les paroles du grand poète irlandais Yeats, qu'"un sacriice trop long peut transformer un coeur en pierre".
