bomHom vIchenmoH 'e' vInIDta'
     
     I attempted to write a little song.
     It is sort of inspired by Rule Britannia but not very....
     
     tlhIngan maH!!
     we are klingon!
     
     mayInmoH machargh
     we conquer because we live
     
     macharghmoH mayIn
     we live because we conquer
     
     not toy'wI'mey maH 'e' teHmoH tlhIngan vajpu' maH
     because we are klingon warriors we will never be slaves.
     
     tlhIngan maH!!
     we are klingon!
     
     Notes:
     I was unsure whether to use moH or mo' as a verb suffix on
mayInmoH 
     and macharghmoH.  I get these suffs mixed up a lot.
     
     I deliberatley used the -mey plural on toy'wI' to try and convey 
     distaste for the notion of being a slave. Is this reasonable??
     
     I had trouble with the 'slaves' line - I tried it several ways
     before I came up with the one you see above - for instance
     tlhIngan vajpu' maHmoH toy'wI'mey maHbe'  (can you have DImaHbe'
??)
