This is a very poetic translation. I'm glad to have it, as I'm working on Mendelssohn's choral setting of the poem in one of my music courses. Have you considered submitting it to CPDL (the choral public domain library) so that others can use it? I'll post the link to the page below.

Thank you.

Thank you-- I didn't know about the CPDL. I've just submitted it.
