I will certainly do this.
I might actually go on and attempt some translating myself, although
honestly, my skills still suck...
Is there a way to go about this, or a translators-mailinglist to get help
from?

I didn't actually think of the Klingon aspect as such... I just read a
message that a friend of mine had gone to Denmark (and someone else saying
that the Danes created a fake grave for Hamlet).
The mention of Hamlet brought me to Beowulf, as I thought this story too
played in the old Nordic regions, and since Hamlet had been translated, I
started wondering about Beowulf...
