A brief suggestion: in Klingon for the Galactic Traveler, we learn that
{SuvwI'} refers to a specific warrior, and {vaj} refers to the concept of a
warrior. If Olaf's song is about a specific warrior, {SuvwI' bom} works
fine. If his song is a song about "warrior-ness," or what it is to be a
warrior, or some similar concept, {vaj bom} would be better.
