Grace
by Dennis King
I láthair mo mhuintire siar go dtí tús na beatha, I bhfianaise na ndéithe
agus na n-aindéithe, In ómós do fhéile
ollmhór na cruinne,
Gabhaim buíochas
roimh mo chuid.
In the presence of my people
back to the beginning of life,
In the witness of the gods
and the ungods,
In homage to the immense
generosity of the universe,
I give thanks
before my portion.
