Quality: unknown

Translating it was an intensive process that took several revisions. This version was finished 25-08-2014; the date at the end of the subtitle (Nov 2013) was the original translation date. The trouble is that lyrics are extremely difficult to translate, even more than poems. Ovigor and I had an abundance of correspondence about it.
