Gaelic Blood vow
"Is tu fuil ‘o mo chuislean, is tu cnaimh de mo chnaimh. Is leatsa mo bhodhaig, chum gum bi sinn ‘n ar n-aon. Is leatsa m’anam gus an criochnaich ar saoghal."
"You are blood of my veins, you are bone of my bone. Yours is my body, that we may be one. Yours is my soul until our worlds end."
I must point out and pay respects to Diana Gabaldon who penned this blood vow with Ian Taylor, as per http://www.lallybroch.com/LOL/blood-vow.html If you aren't aware, Diana Gabaldon is the marvelously talented author of the incredible Cross Stitch, from the Outlander series.
Ring Exchange vow
"Bheirinn a’ ghrian dhut ’s a’ ghealach, is reultan na h-iarmailt gu tur. Ciamar, mar sin, as leòr dhomh, mi fhìn a thoirt dhut?"
"I’d give the sun to you, and the moon, and all of the stars. How then is it enough that I give you myself?"
