I don’t know any Gaelic, but the site below offers to translate english phrases into Gaelic.
As for Robert Burns, he wrote poetry in the 1700s when people didn’t retire – they just got too old to work anymore – so I don’t believe he did. However there are a few of his works such as “On Nature” or “Despondency” that might lend you a few stanzas that would work.
It sounds like fun!
