Hello, and thanks in advance for the assistance. A while back I inquired about this on another forum, and was thrilled to get some help. I delayed getting the tattoo, and now the site is gone.
What I am looking for apparently does not translate easily, so I'll explain my intent and go with the closest variant.
In the song "The Minstrel Boy" there is a line "one sword at least thy rights shall guard" and "one faithful harp shall praise thee".
If I recall, it was previously suggested to go with "to guard you" and "to praise you sweetly" (?) I hope to put each line on (2) tattoos of a sword, and a harp.
I appreciate your help, it is time to get these done.
Your request is a bit confusing, but here's one way to say what I think you're asking for:
Chun do chearta a chosaint[In order] to guard your rights
Chun tusa a mholadh go binn[In order] to praise you sweetly
