Chorus: {.i ge lo mi jufra cu balmau lo me lo drata ku moi gi lo mi jufra cu larcu} My sentences are greater than those of others and my sentences are an art, {ja'e lo nu ge lo mi jufra cu melmau lo me lo drata ku moi gi lo mi jufra= =20 cu selzau vau kei ku vau vau} therefore my sentences are more beautiful than those of others and my=20 sentences are approved.

I'm not sure about {vimcu tadji tikpa}. How to kick with "removing method"= =20 and how is it different than {vimcu tikpa}? ({bo} is redundant in this=20 sentence).

I'm not sure what {ze'a} does in that place.

Trying to understand Lojban?= =20 Or not understanding it? {.i uo nau pu'o gau mi mi lo lojbo ku procau} [completion] I'll make myself unchallenged about Lojban. {pu'o procau} means, as I understand, "anticipate being unchallenged".

Why nine? Other than that nine is enough :) Nine people? It's not clear. {.i no .au da zo'u da senpi tu'a mi} I want nobody to doubt me. {.i do nau pu ke norsi'a bo dukse} You had too much lack of respect.

I like {lo du be lo du}. {.i mulno tu'o ka ju du'u cunso} Complete in null being whether-or-not random.

Actually it's more complicated, as I understand, the connective is joining= =20 sumti here. So it's more like: my things are too Lojbanic, and whether or= =20 not the result of that is that my stuff is [???] nonsense, the result of=20 that is that I destroy the universe. Connecting sumti with {u} or {o} is=20 weird. {.i ca'e spoja} [I define] explodes. {ca'e} doesn't really fit here in my opinion, but I don't see anything=20 closer to something like "fiat lux" and equally concise. mu'o mi'e ianek --=20 You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "= lojban" group.

I really like the song "lo mi jufra" by s= elpa'i: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DsLrmjRIMgAk. But I'm not fluent i= n Lojban and it took me some time to translate it and some parts still aren= 't clear.

Here's what I have:

{doi ro da poi pu denpa .i la s= elpa'i ba'o xruti}
You all who waited: selpa'i has returned.

Chor= us:

{.i ge lo mi jufra cu balmau lo me lo drata ku moi gi lo mi jufr= a cu larcu}
My sentences are greater than those of others and my sentenc= es are an art,

{ja'e lo nu ge lo mi jufra cu melmau lo me lo drata k= u moi gi lo mi jufra cu selzau vau kei ku vau vau}
therefore my sentence= s are more beautiful than those of others and my sentences are approved.
Note: according to camxes, the part after {ja'e} is related only to {l= o mi jufra cu larcu}, not to {lo mi jufra cu balmau}. The first {vau} termi= nated the {selzau} part, the second terminates the {larcu} part and the thi= rd terminated the whole bridi (compare to: {ge broda gi brode vau vau}).

Verse 1:

{.i mi pu pagre lo rictu'a pe lo tsurotro'u tricu = ge'u}
I passed through a forest of thick-thick-thick trees.

{rots= u} means "x1 is thick in dimension/direction x2 by standard x3", so {tsurot= ro'u} probably means "x1 is thick in all three dimensions by standard x2".<= br>
{.e ba bo lo concoicno xamsi sei lo barda ku ditcu fau lo nu no da m= i sidju}
and then a deep-deep-deep sea (a lot of time) while nobody help= ed me.

{condi} has the same place structure as {rotsu}. {lo barda ku= ditcu} literally means "Something big is the elapsed time".

{.i mi = lo ckape pu midju}
I was in a middle of danger.

{.i ku'i mi zukte= lo se nitcu}
But I did what was necessary.

{.i mi to'e ri'a nai = snada. i li'a dai go'i}
I not-despite-cause succeeded. Obviously (for yo= u).

{to'e ri'a nai} is a double negation. I'm not sure it means anyt= hing different than {ri'a}.

{.i krinu fa lo nu mi pilno lo mi blolot= lo'i}
The reason was that I used my boat-boat-boat.

{.i .ei ko na= tolmo'i lo du'u lo drata cu si'akro ca lo nu mi jbikla}
You mustn't for= get that others respectfully bow when I approach.

{.i mi vlalinkei c= a lo nu mi sipna}
I play the Lojban word chaining game when I sleep.
=
{.i je mi na rinpei ba lo nu mi do vimcu bo tadji tikpa}
And I don't= think about reasons after I (removing-method) kick you.

I'm not sur= e about {vimcu tadji tikpa}. How to kick with "removing method" and how is = it different than {vimcu tikpa}? ({bo} is redundant in this sentence).
A= nd it appears to me that it would make more sense to say "I don't hesitate = *before* I kick you out", not "after".

{.i mi li'a fincei soi crano}=
I'm clearly the Creator [Loglanic grin].

{soi crano} is not Lojb= an, it's Loglan. Loglan didn't have attitudinals and they had to used {soi}= for such things ({soi} is Loglanic version of {sei}). In Lojban it would b= e {sei cisma}, but nobody says that, because we have ui/u'i/zo'o etc.
{.i gidva do tu'a lo du'u lo du'u mi crerai na ku kei ku jitfa}
[I] gu= ide you in the fact that the fact that I'm not the greatest expert is false= .

This is a nice double negation. gidva3 is an event, which is why t= here's {tu'a}, but I'm not sure what is the event in which to be guided. I = understand that means something like "I explain to you the structure of thi= s complex phrase", but I'm not sure.

{.i cizra je ci'izra sei mi ji'= a cusku si'a be ca lo nu mi viska lo nu do lo so'u mei poi lojbo cu ciska}<= br>"Curiouser and curiouser" is similar to what I say when I see that you w= rite few things in Lojban.

{cizra je ci'izra} is what Alice said at = the beginning of the Lojban translation of "Alice in Wonderland".

{.= i ku'i mi sanga je to'e mu'i nai cisma}
But I sing and not-despite-motiv= e smile.

What is the motive of smiling? It's not clear.


V= erse 2:

{.i ze'a lo nu lo drata ku jbodau zo'u mi se ba'i finti lo j= bomau ku}
Concerning medium-length-of-time of others arguing about Lojba= n, I instead invent a better Lojban.

I'm not sure what {ze'a} does i= n that place. It would be clearer to me if it were inside {lo nu}.
{jbod= au} might as well mean "argue in Lojban". {jbomau} means literally "more Lo= jbanic".

{.i mi se frili fe tu'a lo jbobau}
For me, easy is Lojba= n.

{.i ku'i do naljmi lo du'u lo jbobau cu mo kau}
But you don't = understand what is Lojban.

{.i ko vau .i uu nai ta do mrovau}
Do.= [cruelty] This is your coffin.

{ko vau} is an elliptical imperative= , the command is to be guessed. Probably it means {ko jimpe lo du'u lo jbob= au cu mo kau}.
I don't know what is the metaphorical coffin. Trying to u= nderstand Lojban? Or not understanding it?

{.i uo nau pu'o gau mi mi= lo lojbo ku procau}
[completion] I'll make myself unchallenged about Lo= jban.

{pu'o procau} means, as I understand, "anticipate being unchal= lenged". So why {uo}?

{.i ki'u bo mi tronau}
This is because I'm = a controlling-male

(alpha male?)

{gi'e kakne lo ka minde lo s= o rau mei ku lo ka ce'u do spogau}
and I can issue commands to nine-enou= gh for destroying you.


Why nine? Other than that nine is enough = :) Nine people? It's not clear.

{.i no .au da zo'u da senpi tu'a mi}=
I want nobody to doubt me.

{.i do nau pu ke norsi'a bo dukse}You had too much lack of respect.

It's not disrespect, that would b= e {tolsi'a}. {norsi'a} is being neutral with regard to respect. And you did= it too much.

{.i do xabju la jbogugde}
You live in Lojbanistan.<= br>
{.i ba'e mi xabju lo jbojevysofkemsuzgugje'ake'eborke=C2=ADmfaipaltr= usi'oke'ekemgubyseltru}
*I* live in the Lojbanic Soviet Federative Socia= list Republic.

It's in jbovlaste.

{.i do lo du'u di'u ma kau = selsmu cu na djuno}
You don't know what that means.

{.i do retsku= lu xu pelxu li'u ki'u lo nu do selfi'u}
You ask "is it yellow?", becaus= e you're confused.

This is an absurd question in this context, but r= emember, you're confused.

{.i ie lo nu crebi'o cu barda nunli'u}
= I agree: becoming an expert is a big travel.

{.i ku'i naltoi fa lo t= olvri .e do mi'u}
But a coward doesn't try, and you ditto.


Ve= rse 3 Part 1:

{.i ro lo mi nunzu'e cu ro roi se manci}
All my act= ions are always awesome.

{.i mi banli co'a lo cerni gi'e nalsti ca l= o vanci}
I'm great starting from the morning and I don't stop at the eve= ning.

{.i mi ca lo nu tolcanci cu simlu lo ka palci}
When I appea= r, I seem to be evil.

{.i ku'i je'u mi na palci}
But really I'm n= ot evil.

{.i lo jbovla mi nalci}
Lojbanic words are my wings.
=
{.i lo do prosa cu kalci}
Your prose is shit.

{.i lo remna mi= salci}
Humans celebrate mi.

{.i lo remna do salci na'i}
'Huma= ns celebrate you' doesn't makes sense.

It's hard to translate {na'i}= .

{.i lo ka jinga kei mi tcaci}
Winning is my habit.

{.i m= i simsa lo tarci lo ka do ba no roi zvajbi}

I'm like a star: you wil= l never be near.

{.i ko na se spaji}
Don't be surprised.

{= .i mi'e la selpa'i ku}
I'm selpa'i.

{.i do lo mabla ku ckaji}
= You're characterized by a derogative connotation.

Something like "yo= u're shitty"?

{.i lo do fanmo cu lamji}
Your end is adjacent.
=
Isn't {lamji} a bit weird here?

{.i ku'i ba'e mi cu cimni jai ra= nji}
But *I* am eternal and persistent.

Verse 3 Part 2:

{.= i xu do na'e djuno fe lo du'u mi na simsa su'o drata}
Don't you know tha= t I'm not like others?

{.i mi brarai be lo ro brama'a}
I'm the bi= ggest of all mountains.

{.i lo ni mi rafcre zo'u:}
About how much= of a rafsi expert I am:

{ge do xamsi korbi klama bredi binxo zukte}=
You take actions to become prepared to walk by the seashore,

{gi= mi xaskoiklabrebi'ozu'e}
and I (do the same, but in one lujvo).

= {.i zo .u'e selsku ju'o do}
"Wow" is certainly said by you.

{.i j= e mi ba'e zengau la'e di'u}
And I *increase* that.

{.i je ba bo f= a'a lo me do moi ku mi sputu .u'u cu'i}
And then I spit in your directio= n with no regret.

{.i mi gu'u kulnu iu gi kusru prenu}
And I am a= cultural <3 whether-or-not cruel person.

{.i ie ke'u ba'e zengau= la'e di'u pu'o}
Yes, I repeat: going to *increase* that.

He says= {ke'u}, but it was without {pu'o} before. Now it refers to being a cultura= l person, not to you saying "wow".

{.i se gu mu curnu cu muvdu tu pu= ku mu tubnu}
Whether or not five worms moved from there to five pipes,<= br>
It's bonkers from now on. I don't understand a thing, only that most= words have "u" as the only vowel.

{gi tu sfubu nu vu ru'u gunro lo = du be lo du}
that was a diving event of far surrounding rolling of the s= ame thing as the same thing.

I like {lo du be lo du}.

{.i mul= no tu'o ka ju du'u cunso}
Complete in null being whether-or-not random.<= br>
This I don't understand even more. {tu'o} (null) is used as a quanti= fier for a property of being whether-or-not random, whatever that means.
{.i mi virnu}
I'm brave.

Back to intelligible things.
{.i ju'o mi cusku zo .u'o}
Certainly I say "[courage]".

Hard to = translate, but it's clear.

{.i zu'u nai mi fenki ia pu'o}
On the= other hand I'm going to go crazy (I believe).

{.i pu'u na pensi fe = tu'a lo menli si tu'a lo menli ku lu'u}
Process of not thinking --about = mind-- about mind.

I'm sure it should be {sa}, not {si}, it wouldn't= even parse otherwise. {lu'u} terminates LAhE, here: {tu'a}.

{.i lo = mi ro da ku jbodu'e}
All of my things are too much Lojbanic,

{ja'= e lo su'u lo me mi moi cu nu'o nai nonselsmu se .u}
so whether or not my= stuff is [not-unrealized potential] nonsense,

camxes and jbofi'e do= n't accept {nai} after CAhA. And I don't know what would mean {nu'o nai}. C= an't but has? Can't or has? And what that would mean in relation to a stati= c property?

{lo zu'o gau mi lo munje ku spofu}
I destroy the univ= erse.

Actually it's more complicated, as I understand, the connectiv= e is joining sumti here. So it's more like: my things are too Lojbanic, and= whether or not the result of that is that my stuff is [???] nonsense, the = result of that is that I destroy the universe. Connecting sumti with {u} or= {o} is weird.

{.i ca'e spoja}
[I define] explodes.

{ca'e}= doesn't really fit here in my opinion, but I don't see anything closer to = something like "fiat lux" and equally concise.
