Hello,
i'm currently listening to the song Fat Cat Wants Tasty Fish from
Teleidofusion and was wondering how it would sound if the lyrics were
in lojban. So, how would you say "Cat wants to see fish." [sic] i= n
Lojban?

I tried to think of the sentence as a relation between the cat and its
desire for the act of seeing fish.
So, how about the following?
lo mlatu cu djica lenu lo finpe se viska

Or would you rather use du'u instead of nu?
lo mlatu cu djica ledu'u lo finpe se viska


Thanks in advance,
Paul
