Your profile says you are fluent in both, English and Spanish. - rac1, Sep 9, 2014
Yes I am, but I just want to double check on something and see what somebody else comes up with. - 0021241a, Sep 9, 2014
It sounds quite poetic to me, and outside its broader context would be very hard to interpret for me other than literally word for word. - bosquederoble, Sep 9, 2014
That is not to claim that I could do more than a literal translation even if I had more context - bosquederoble, Sep 9, 2014
It is part of a song that I'm writing. Thanks for your comments. - 0021241a, Sep 10, 2014
Maybe your question should be - does it sound good and sensible to a native speaker then. And what does it mean to them. ;) - bosquederoble, Sep 10, 2014
I would translate it as: "Days weave with light the edge of fantasy". but in English I would have written: "The light of day weaves at the edge of fantasy". but I don't know if that sounds poetic. Somehow the music makes it easier to understand. - 0021241a, Sep 10, 2014

It´s a simple translation, but rather than using "braid" for "trenzan", I think in English it would make sense to use "intertwine": The days intertwine with their light the coast (maybe "edge" depending on context) of fantasy.
