   Hi! Alexander,   
      
   In a message to All you wrote:   
      
    ak> In my translation I have these lines (here a teacher of music (Paul   
    ak> knows him ;-) is checking the boy's faculty for music):   
      
   You are lucky I have the time for this, at this time.  This is a simple   
   'vote', Alexander.  :)

    ak> I was told by one guy that the words of the song should be taken in

    ak>                  And darkness has covered the camp." etc   
      
    ak> Should I do it or the indentation of the song's words is enough?   
      
   I vote for just indentation.  Keep it simple, amigo.   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.
