My very good friend in Holland has Irish roots. He is looking for a tattoo that expresses what he feels for his daughters. He lives for them, and he would die for them. If there is a more appropriate phrasing, suggestions are welcome. He speaks fairly good English, but not enough I'm afraid to request this himself. As for me, I'm just happy to be here and can't wait to become part of the community. Thanks so much, I hope I followed protocol for requests in this thread. Forgive me if I did not.

Hi, James. Welcome to the forum.

We have a dedicated translation section so I have moved your request there and added "Tat" to the subject heading to let people know what kind of translation you are after.

Good luck.
