Hey everyone...it's been suggested that I post the actual lyrics of the song I just translated...as well as an MP3. I can do the first, but I have no clue how to do the 2nd...I have the song on CD, but if anyone knows how to upload an MP3 to livejournal...please inform me.
So here goes with the translation...Perhaps, I will make a pronunciation key.
e = eh as in memory
a = ah as in automobile
u' = uuuu as in Umayer
a' = ah as in father
e' = ay as in pay
u = uh as in bus
o' = oh as in toe
ph = f as in philosopher
i = ih as in pit
n' = nasal n as in sudden
i' = e as in me
cue = q as in the letter "Q"
rr = rolled r as in Marria

Wow...that looks horribly hard to read. Anyhow...it's a difficult language that's written in a different script, so it gets a bit difficult to transliterate. Anyhow...more to come...and hopefully someone will teach me how to upload MP3's to my journal.
