Ara-caun Coire Sofhis
sernar dliged cach dáno
dia moiget moin
móras cach ceird coitchiunn
con-utaing duine dán

I acclaim the Cauldron of Knowledge

which exalts a person by means of art

approximate pronunciation:

SHER-nar DLEE-yeth kawkh DAH-no
DEE-a MOY-ghed MO-in
MOR-as kawkh kayrd KOHD-khyun
con OO-dahng DIN-ya dawn
