Hello everybody.

What a nice forum you have :)

This is my first post here. Sorry for coming just to ask for help. The point is that I'm trying to translate a Japanese poem in to English and I'm finding a lot of difficulties. It seems to be a very difficult poem, or it's something conceptual or I don't know. I'm very interested in knowing what it says so I'll be able to write it under the picture so everybody here (everybody speaks English) could understand it.

Can you help me with this?? I'll thank you very much.

This is the picture of the poem.

Thanks again. :)

Hey Nekete,

If you want to have that poem translated by many Japanese nationals and get the best essence in their translation.

I do reccomend you this website:

Multi-lingual language learning and language exchange | Lang-8: For learning foreign languages

You will get many translation as soon as you upload and register your profile.

I normally get from 30 to 50 average post views in one day and from those 3 to 4 people help you with the translations.

I agree with jochan. Lang-8 is really a good website to visit.
I always use it too. :)

Hello, friends. I haven't forgotten you :)

I've come to tell you that finally and suddenly and for surprise I found a magazine talking about this London Peace Pagoda and Nichidatsu and his poem in japanese and... you know what?? and also the translation by the author, Nichidatsu.

A friend of me gave this magazine to another person and until two days ago it didn't get back to me again.

So, here you have the translation we are going to use for being Nichidatsu's words.

""" A precious stupa
bringing together prayers for peace
appears in London
in celebration of my 100th year """

So, thank you very much again for your collaboration. :)

Jorge.

Hey Nekete,

I will try to assist you as best possible.

I know this is going to sound very weird as a translation but IMO I think it says = ehh ehh ehh ano

Sorry.
