What is the difference between {X vIghajbe'} and {X vIHutlh} ?
Only one of negativity, so far as we know. {X vIHutlh} is a positive statement; {X vIghajbe'} is a negative one. If your poem has any sense of being positive or negative about what it's saying, choose based on that. Otherwise, if the poem has a meter and you're keeping the meter in your translation, make use of whichever version fits the meter better. -- SuStel http://trimboli.name
