Hello all,
I learned about Solresol over a year ago, but have not gotten a good grasp on it. In order to learn, I have started a project to help myself. I am attempting to translate one of my favorite poems, Rumi's "Pure Light," into Solresol, and animate it. A few things:
1) There's no sound.
2) It goes really, REALLY quickly. Sorry about that. I am trying to put all the information in before I work out the timing.
3) I extended the color bars to show plurals.
4) The orange came out as a brownish tone. I gotta fix that.
5) I couldn't find the translation for some of the words. I have marked these words with an asterisk (*) below. If you know what they are, please let me know.
Here are the lines I have used so far:
"I am totally lost in the folds of love,
Totally free of worry and care.
I have passed beyond the four qualities.
My heart* has torn away the veil of pretense.
There was a time I circled with the nine spheres*,
rolling with the stars across the sky."
Please, please let me know of any grammatical errors, strange word choice, etc. I am so new to this language, so all constructive criticism is more than welcome.
The video is here:

Thanks!
