Taliesin foi um poeta britano da Britânia pós-romana cuja obra talvez sobreviveu em manuscrito em galês médio, o Livro de Taliesin. Era um renomeado bardo que se acredita ter cantado na corte de ao menos três reis britanos. Na mitologia e poesia galesa medieval, é referido como Taliesin Ben Beirdd pois excedia a seus coetâneos na arte poética. Dentre suas presumidas obras há uma awdl ou ode que contem um resumo da história do mundo na qual há uma estrofe que trata do destino dos britanos. A maioria dos poemas do Livro de Taliesin é relativamente recente , mas ao menos doze deles são, de acordo com Ifor Williams, contemporâneos ao bardo. Wikipedia

Taliesin: Frases em inglês

“I am not meet for petty men, slack their habit:
They know not, they, on what day who was made,
what hour of the fine day was born to whom,
who made him who went not to the dale of Tefwy.
They know not, they, the great Speckled Ox in headgear
with seven-score links in its collar-chain.
And when we went with Arthur, a sorry visit,
Save for seven none came up from Fort Divine Height.”

Book of Taliesin (c. 1275?), The Spoils of Annwn

“He would not journey without a foot.
He would not breed nuts without trees,
Like seeking for ants in the heath.
Like an instrument of foolish spoil,
Like the retinue of an army without a head,
Like feeding the unsheltered on lichen.”

Book of Taliesin (c. 1275?), The Fold of the Bards

“Meditating were my thoughts
On the vain poetry of the bards of Brython.
Making the best of themselves in the chief convention.
Enough, the care of the smith’s sledge-hammer.
I am in want of a stick, straitened in song,
The fold of the bards, who knows it not?”

“When God comes
A great noise will pierce us,
The day of judgment terribly.
Messengers from the door,
Wind, and sea, and fire.
lightning and thunder
A number without flattery.
The people of the world groaning
Will be concealed.”

Book of Taliesin (c. 1275?), Oh God, the God of Formation

“Monks mass like a pack of wolves
from disputing with the masters who instruct them -
They know not when deep dark and dawn divorce
nor who sends the wind, nor who moves it,
where it disappears to, what land it strikes.”

Book of Taliesin (c. 1275?), The Spoils of Annwn

“Composed for renown am I, a verse heard
on the stone-doored isle in the four-quartered fort.
Tranquillity and obscurity mingled
shiny wine their drink before their retinue.
Three fulnesses of Prydwen we went upon the main,
Save for seven none came up from Castle Rigor.”
