Morgan poem going Gaelic
A POEM penned by Scotland's poet laureate Edwin Morgan to mark the opening of the Scottish Parliament building will be recited at Holyrood again tomorrow – this time in Gaelic.
The poem Open The Doors! has been translated by author Rody Gorman, who will read it at the launch of the Parliament's new five-year Gaelic language plan.
The recital will mark the start of two days of Gaelic events at Holyrood to welcome the new plan, which includes expanding the range of public information available in Gaelic and ensuring it is considered in policy making.
