reH ru'Ha' pagh. chut 'oH

Brent Kesler ([email protected]) [KLI Member]



Hello, all,

I'd like to share a (loose) translation I've been working on. It's a
passage from the Lotus Sutra. It figures prominantly in "Samurai
Executioner", a manga I like.

tlhIngan Hol:
   reH ru'Ha' pagh. chut 'oH
   HeghnIS yIn, yInnIS Hegh
   rInDI' yIn, rInDI' Hegh
   vaj paghmo' belqu' Hoch

Original:
    All things are impermanent.
    This is the law of life and extinction.
    When both life and extinction perish,
    Nirvana will be bliss.

I tried to be a little creative based on my understanding the passage.
I might need  to explain some of my decisions, but I'd like to see
what people think first.

bI'reng
