Does anyone out there know the english translation of this song by Lisa Gerrard from the film Gladiator? I have the words in their original language (gaelic??) but would love to know what they mean in english.
TIA x

It isn't a real language so I doubt there's a translation available.

Apparently Lisa Gerrard just makes up sounds that fit in with the feeling of the song. Also she feels the lack of actual lyrics enable the listener to interpret it according to their own emotions/experiences.

However if you want to sing along to the song, you can find the 'words' here:

Sorry about the annoying pop-ups!
