My comment:

"Die young" can't be rendered smoothly in Irish because there is no verb "to die." Instead, we speak of people as "finding death." Because of that, I've changed your translation slightly, to "a good life, a young death, strength and honor." The result is more natural in Irish.

Fadas (acute accents) should be placed as follows: on the "a" in bas, the "o" in og, and the first "o" in onoir.
