Translation is an art
That’s not for the faint of heart.
And it turns extra scary,
When the text is literary,
And when it’s (shudder) poetic,
The peril is pathetic.
The problem is the words
Were pointedly picked to be heard,
To be savored, almost sung.
But the sounds vary crazily
From tongue to tongue.
As a first shot you can lazily
Give AI a try,
But somehow it never quite
Gets texture or flavor right.
