translation ;)

[Yig]

Could anybody translate it into Irish Gaelic for me?
"forever alone immortal'

Thanx in advance

Difficult.

The 'alone' needs an object of reference - who is alone?

I m'aonair, go deo, gan mbais. (I alone, forever, without death)
Ina aonair, go deo, gan mbais. (He/She alone, forever, without death)
I d'aonair, go deo, gan mbais. (You alone, forever, without death)

As for the pronunciation:

the I is not a hard aye, but soft like the i in 'fill'
the aonair is ay-ner (ay as in hay, ner as in nerd)
the go deo is 'go joe'
and the mbais is mah-sh (mah sounds like ma in mama)

I think this is all right, but I've not been at school for some years, and
it should be noted its biased to a Northern dialect.
