Inspired by Carol to InterTube my way to the original Irish text.

This was a much more enjoyable translation for me to read. Comparing the two translations (Heaney's to Flowers') offers fascinating reflections on style, bias, skill, taste, audience, etc.
Thanks, Carol!

This is the sing-song translation attributed to Robin Flowers. All this time I've been naive, Pangur Ban is quite a read.
Quoted:
So in peace our tasks we ply,
Pangur Ban, my cat and I;
In our arts we find our bliss,
I have mine, and he has his.
