Irish Poem by Tammi Lane

Irish



Irish:
Cáintear na fileadha
's ni hiad do bhionn cionntach;
Ni fachtar as na soighthighe
acht an Ián do bhios ionnta.

English:
Men mock the poet for his want of wit,
Yet not the poet's is the fault of it;
Out of a little vessel you'll not gain
More than a little vessel can contain.

Men may mock the poet for his lack of wit. I do so hope they don't mock the comedy poet for his lack of wit. Much Enjoyed your poem Steve STIRK Comedy Poet
