Breton,mister.You know anything about Brittany?! However,breton is another variation of celtic language (besides,the poet who first wrote the Round Table Circle actually comes from there,and many spots in the area are traditionally connected with such characters),sticking pretty fast to the root.I have no idea how different it is from gaelic-however,it's still in use-it's getting back to official education.It has some bits of french and other bits of english in the middle. I was told that children at school there are taught in french,Breton and English. Its sound is quite rough and quite seductive.

Pardon Spezed
(Suite Sud Armoricaine)
E pardon Spezed e oan bet
Ur plac'h yaouank am eus kavet

'Barzh ur park vras hon eus kousket
Ur verol bras am eus tapet

D'an ospital on bet kaset
War an daol bras on bet lakaet

Ha ma lost vras'so bet troc'het
Dre ar prenestr eo bet kaset

Ur mell ki-bleiz 'so tremenet
Ha ma lost vras e-neus debret

Hag ar c'hi-bleiz a so marwet.

Pardon Spezed
(Suite Sud Armoricaine)
Je suis allé au pardon de Spezet,
J'y ai trouvé une jeune femme
Nous avons couché dans un grand pré
J'ai attrapé la grande vérole
On m'a emmené à l'hopital
On m'a mis sur une grande table
Et on a coupé ma grande queue
Elle a été jetée la fenêtre
Un grand chien-loup se promenait
Et voilà que ma grande queue fut mangée
Et le chien-loup est mort.

Pardon Spezed

I asked forgiveness of Spezet,
I found there a young woman
We made love in a big way
I caught the great pox
One took along me to the hospital
One put to me on a large table
And one cut my large prick
It was thrown out the window
a large wolfhound walked
And here that my large prick was eaten
And the wolfhound died.

Naughty Alan Stivell !!
