Laeticia,

 

I've probably man of the same questions as you do. 

 

I am also a "lurker" in old Norse.  In college, I  took courses in beginning Norwegian,  German,  and have also studied a bit of some other languages.

 

I read the old Norse and then read the translation, and work at my own understandings.

 

Your signature poem translates something like??? :

 

"You know not  who shed the  tears, 

 Which are rebirthed today like a gift of  of flowers?   

That disenchantment, sprouted  these flowers;

To wither one day and yield  fresh pain, new songs, new agony, new downers."

Dann

Não sabeis vós que as lágrimas caídas no passado
são flores renascidas em vosso presente?
Que desencanto, posto que essas flores
um dia murcham e consigo trazem novas mágoas,
novos choros, novas agonias, novos desalentos
