Աստվածուհին սիրո եւ վերջին սերը.
Աստղիկ, ես մենակ եմ.
Ուղարկիր ինձ իմ ցանկություն.
Բեր ինձ ցանկամոլություն.
Սապփո, որ Աֆրոդիտեի դուստրը.
Ես ուզում եմ ձեզ հիմա, իմ մուգ մայրը.

Goddess of love and last love.
Astghik, I‘m alone.
Send me my wish.
Bring me my desire.
Sappho was Aphrodite’s daughter.
I need you now, my dark mother.

note:
Astghik, besides being a popular Armenian girl’s name, is one of the old gods that lived in the Caucasus mountains before Armenia became the first Christian nation in the world. She was, and is, a love goddess, the protector of young girls and the guardian of fresh water. The Greek poet Sappho wrote a hymn to Aphrodite. This is my hymn for Astghik.
And once again I must apologize for my poor skills in Armenian. I am slowly learning the grammar, but it is a slow process when you are teaching yourself. One day I hope to be able to write the poems I dream about writing in Armenian, but until then I will keep on trying.

In my opinion, as an Armenian language scholar, you’re doing fine. The closest art and writing style to Old Norse is from some place called Sarmatia. I think it’s near Armenia. Now only spoken in Iceland. That’s a little leap in geography.
Later…
Thank you very much! The only thing I remember about the Sauromatians is that Herodotus claimed they traced their roots to the Amazons (but I might be mistaking them for someone else, these things blur in my head). Even if that wasn’t true it still makes a good story =)
