    In Gaelic, it's "a chuisle mo chroí" not "mo chuisle".

    Spanish "flechazo" could bebtrabslated to "stung". As in "I was stung by Cupid's arrow".

    How come you didn't take Persian? As in asheghetam = I love you and eshghe man = My love ? Much more beautiful than the Danish one 😊 (not bashing just informing)
