I am hoping to get some help with a translation. My mom's side of the family is French Basque (from the Basque Pyrenees in the vicinity of Arette, France) and unfortunately the only family member who is still living and knows the language, is my Grandpa who has dementia and is unable to communicate. He is an amazing man and has always been one of my heroes. In his honor, and my family's honor, I would like to get a tattoo in Basque. Which brings me to the purpose of this post...
Is anyone able to translate this into Basque for me:
"Shall we dance?"
The significance of this phrase is twofold:
1- When I was a little girl, the same Grandpa I mentioned above used to dance me around with me standing on the tops of his feet as he sang "Shall We Dance?" to me from "The King and I." You can listen here: http://youtu.be/ZdfAM4L6ceg

2 - As a newly wed, the phrase is also a metaphor for being in sync with your partner. In this way, "Shall We Dance" is asking to sharing your life together, in sync with one another.
In any case, any help with a translation or suggestions for where I can get a reliable translation would be most appreciated.
Thank you!
