Concerning "yIn rInbe'taH neHqu' 'Iv"
1: You quoted from the one with the spelling error ({neqqu'} instead of
{neHqu'}). Unimportaint, but...
2: I have much difficulty translating some lines. "But touch my tears with your
lips, touch my world with your fingertips" were the especially dificult ones
,
especially given the meter.
3: I find it hard to believe that Klingons emphisize the negitive aspects of
life. They write love poetry, for one thing.
New versions of both songs will be posted soon when I have the time (unless a
vote is taken saying nobody wants them).
