"While the sun is Bright..." - HELP!

    Hey!
    I’m a student from Brazil who happens to be really attracted to the Irish language. Can’t find time or a proper way to learn it though..

    But anyway, I am going to do a tattoo very soon (don't want to wait any longer)…in Irish
    And since I’m not really good at it, I’d LOVE if anyone could help me translate this sentence:

    “While the sun is Bright, or in my darkest night”

    I was told it would be something like “Fad is a bheidh an ghrian gal,nói m’oícheanta is duairce”

    What do you think? Is it 100% correct?

    Thanks A LOT in advance :)

    The nói should be nó. Other than that it devles into the realms of grammar. I can ask my Irish teacher tommorrow if you don't get any other replies.

    "Fad is a bheidh an ghrian gheal, nó san oíche is duairce a bheidh agam"

    oícheanta is the plural of oíche

    Wait for a couple more opinions, there are a few ways you can say it.
