Poem

I had to translate this poem in school...don't ask me to translate it again, I didn't do to good on it.

"Why dois your brand sae drap wi bluid, Edward, Edward,
Why dois your brand sae drap wi bluid.
why sae sad gang yee O?"
I hae killed my hauke sae guid,
And I had nae mair but hee O."
"Your haukis bluid was nevir sae reid, Edward, Edward,
Your haukis bluid was nevir sae reid,
My deir son I tell thee O."
"O I hae killed my reid roan steid, Mither, mither,
O I hae killed my reid roan steid,
That erst was sae fair and free O."

School is so anoying. Like I am ever gonna use this in my life?!
I know the poem has a lot of blood and killing in it...A kid even kills a horse...o.o

RE: Poem

Okay, from what I can make out, that's a very disturbing poem... And I know how ya feel, Chris. I think literature is the absolute most useless subject (if you wanna call it that) in school. I was doing it last year, but luckily I'm not doing it this year.

RE: Poem

It just doesn't even make sense most of the time...like, BRAND is SWORD....o.o

Translation (Best to my ability):
"Why does your sword so drip with blood, Edward, Edward,
Why does your sword so drip with blood.
Why so sad walk yee Oh?"
I have killed my hawk so walk,
And I had nae mair but hee Oh." (???)
"Your hawks blood was never so red, Edward, Edward,
Your hawks blood was never so red,
My dear son I tell thee Oh."
"Oh, I have killed my reid roan steid (horse), Mother, mother,
Oh I have killed my reid roan steid,
That erst(?) was so far and free Oh."

Strange eh'? It is so stupid!
