Good work, regardless of the accuracy, you are on the right path if you are working on understanding the translations and context of the lyrics from the original language.

There is a tremendous amount of insight to be had by doing so and you have my congratulations on taking the step, steps I am slowly taking myself with the style I practice as well.

Best of luck!

Haha, thanks and good luck on your own quest! Its funny I can speak & understand Chinese, I can also speak & understand English but translating from English-Chinese or Chinese-English OMG it sucks!

But it's all good information, so I agree with you 100%.
