Alert and listening, Gawain lies in his bed; his lids are lowered but he sleeps very little as each crow of the cock brings his destiny closer.

whether fate be foul or fair,
why falter i or fear?
what should man do but dare?

Pese a las dificultades, con conciencia absoluta de las complicaciones, sabiendo los riesgos y a pesar del dolor de lo que no resultó como pensábamos, es importante no dudar que al final el resultado será aquel que hemos previsto y deseado.

En cualquier camino el último paso nunca lo es por casualidad, y siempre nos pesa, aunque haya sido elegido al azar, la sensación de que todo lo anterior podr
ía no servir si fallamos en este último momento.

En las circunstancias más difíciles, y en los momentos en que nos invade la sensación de haber perdido el rumbo, es justamente, la certeza del resultado final, lo que nos dará la fuerza para hacer y para arriesgar, la motivación para avanzar, desear, insistir, valorar y seguir luchando por lo que creemos

skyrim song in dragon and english language

Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin, naal ok zin los vahriin,
Wah dein vokul mahfaeraak ahst vaal!
Ahrk fin norok paal graan fod nust hon zindro zaan,
Dovahkiin, fah hin kogaan mu draal!

Huzrah nu, kul do od, wah aan bok lingrah vod,
Ahrk fin tey, boziik fun, do fin gein!
Wo lost fron wah ney dov, ahrk fin reyliik do jul,
Voth aan suleyk wah ronit faal krein

Ahrk fin zul, rok drey kod, nau tol morokei frod,
Rul lot Taazokaan motaad voth kein!
Sahrot Thu'um, med aan tuz, vey zeim hokoron pah,
Ol fin Dovahkiin komeyt ok rein!

Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin, naal ok zin los vahriin,
Dragonborn, Dragonborn, by his honor is sworn,
Wah dein vokul mahfaeraak ahst vaal!
To keep evil forever at bay!
Ahrk fin norok paal graan fod nust hon zindro zaan,
And the fiercest foes rout when they hear triumph's shout,
Dovahkiin, fah hin kogaan mu draal!
Dragonborn, for your blessing we pray!

Ahrk fin Kel lost prodah, do ved viing ko fin krah, 
And the Scrolls have foretold, of black wings in the cold, 
Tol fod zeymah win kein meyz fundein!
That when brothers wage war come unfurled!
Alduin, feyn do jun, kruziik vokun staadnau,
Alduin, Bane of Kings, ancient shadow unbound,
Voth aan bahlok wah diivon fin lein!
With a hunger to swallow the world!

Nuz aan sul, fent alok, fod fin vul dovah nok,
But a day, shall arise, when the dark dragon's lies,
Fen kos nahlot mahfaeraak ahrk ruz!
Will be silenced forever and then!
Paaz Keizaal fen kos stin nol bein Alduin jot,
Fair Skyrim will be free from foul Alduin's maw!
Dovahkiin kos fin saviik do muz!
Dragonborn be the savior of men!

Dovahkiin, Dovahkiin, naal ok zin los vahriin,
Dragonborn, Dragonborn, by his honor is sworn,
Wah dein vokul mahfaeraak ahst vaal!
To keep evil forever at bay!
Ahrk fin norok paal graan fod nust hon zindro zaan
And the fiercest foes rout when they hear triumph's shout,
Dovahkiin, fah hin kogaan mu draal!
Dragonborn, for your blessing we pray!

In English

This, translated into English, comes out as
Dragonborn, Dragonborn, by his honor is sworn,
To keep evil forever at bay!
And the fiercest foes rout when they hear triumph's shout,
Dragonborn, for your blessing we pray!

Hearken now, sons of snow, to an age, long ago,
And the tale, boldly told, of the one!
Who was kin to both wyrm, and the races of man,
With a power to rival the sun!

And the voice, he did wield, on that glorious field,
When great Tamriel shuddered with war!
Mighty Thu'um, like a blade, cut through enemies all,
As the Dragonborn issued his roar!

To Listen.

"Listening is the oldest and perhaps the most powerful tool of healing.
It is often through the quality of our listening and not the wisdom of
our words that we are able to affect the most profound changes in
the people around us. When we listen, we offer with our attention
an opportunity for wholeness. Our listening creates sanctuary for
the homeless parts within the other person. That which has been denied,
unloved, devalued by themselves and others. That which is hidden.
In this culture the soul and the heart too often go homeless.
Listening creates a holy silence. When you listen generously to people,
they can hear the truth in themselves, often for the first time. And in
the silence of listening, you can know yourself in everyone. Eventually
you may be able to hear, in everyone and beyond everyone,
the unseen singing softly to itself and to you."

A Poem for Sir Gawain by Simon Armitage


Time now to rise, to strike out with a clenched heart
And no map but the view from the peak
Where the west wind plumes your cheeks,
Leads with its granite fists.
Days of rain, rain that permeates the bone
Personal rain, persecuting the soul.
Days when the promised lake
Is a dishwater pond
Run from a grey cloud onto a dead hill.
Eat what the rook or crow leaves on its plate,
Bed down where even the fox won’t sleep.
‘Til the way narrows and halts
And you wait in armor or anorak under the ridge
With a campfire tan and hedgerow hair
And a god looks down, silent
Stony-faced, bearded with living moss.
This is the place.
The journey over and the story told,
The yarn at the end of its long green thread.
Speak now, for all that you’re worth,
As the blade swoons in judgment
Over your pretty head.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
If you do not take risks, you will never accomplish anything. 

Even if you do something and it fails, at least you have gained experience from it.

Make You Feel My Love- Ed Sheeran

When the evening shadows
And the stars appear
And there is no - one there
To dry your tears
I could hold you
For a million years


The storms are raging
On the rolling sea
And on the highway of regret
The winds of change
Are blowing wild and free


I could make you happy
Make your dreams come true
Nothing that I wouldn't do
Go to the ends
Of the Earth for you
To make you feel my love

"Grade 8"

"Grade 8"

My mind is a warrior,
My heart is a foreigner,
My eyes are the colour of red like a sunset,
I'll never keep it bottled up,
Left to the hands of the coroner,
Be a true heart not a follower,
We're not done yet now,

I see it in your movements tonight,
If we should ever do this right,
I'm never gonna let you down,
Oh I'll never let you down,
Now keep it on the down low
And I'll keep you around so I'll know,
That I'll never let you down,
I'll never let you down.

You're strumming on my heart strings like you were a grade 8 but I never felt this way,
I'll pick your feet up off of the ground and never ever let you down,
You're strumming on my heart strings like you were a grade 8 but I never felt this way,
I'll pick your feet up off of the ground and never ever let you down,

My eyes are a river filler,
This drink is a liver killer,
My chest is a pillow for your weary head to lay to rest again,
Your body is my ballpoint pen
And your mind is my new best friend,
Your eyes are my mirror to take me to the edge again,

Now I see it in your movements tonight,
If we should ever do this right,
I'm never gonna let you down,
Oh I'll never let you down,
We'll keep it on the down low
And I'll keep you around so I'll know,
That I'll never let you down,
I'll never let you down,

You're strumming on my heart strings like you were a grade 8 but I never felt this way,
I'll pick your feet up off of the ground and never ever let you down,
You're strumming on my heart strings like you were a grade 8 but I never felt this way,
I'll pick your feet up off of the ground and never ever let you down,

Hold my heart to stop me bleeding now, now, now, and I'll never let you down [x4]
'Cause You're strumming on my heart strings like you were a grade 8 but I never felt this way,
I'll pick your feet up off of the ground and never ever let you down,
You're strumming on my heart strings like you were a grade 8 but I never felt this way,
I'll pick your feet up off of the ground and never ever let you down,
