Here's a draft of the transcription for the Valley Below. Could any English speaker help to improve it. The contentious areas are marked in red... Thanks

The Valley Below (amended #4)

The ashes of burning incense
To the clouds of Holy smoke
A sentimental journey
In these days
Of the Killing Joke

No it's not my youth's generation
Nor the one I heard came before
No wife from South East Asia
But a child of the last cold war

Flying high above the valley below
I see all the colours of the rainbow
Cover me with flowers
From the garden that we grow
And I swear I'll marry you
Tomorrow
Oh yeah
Oh oh

A premeditated mantra
In the minds of mythical force
Dispairing flows inducing
When the body
Has run off its course

Flying high above the valley below
I see all the colours of the rainbow
Cover me with flowers
From the garden that we grow
And I swear I marry you
Tomorrow

You say we'll make a difference
The best is still yet to come
I dedicate this festival
To freedom

The calming voice of new order
In embracing stranglehold
From four corners of the planet
Have you heard?
Have you heard?

Flying high above the valley below
I see all the colours of the rainbow
Cover me with flowers
From the garden that we grow
And I swear I'll marry you
Tomorrow
Oh yeah
Oh oh

(Thanking Dave for his help)

Dave

I hear this:-

The Valley Below (corrigé 3)

The ashes of burning incense
To the clouds of Holy smoke
A sentimental journey
In these days
Of the Killing Joke

No it's not my youth's generation
Nor the one I heard came before
No wife from South East Asia
But a child of the last cold war

Flying high above the valley below
I see all the colours of the rainbow
Cover me with flowers
From the garden that we grow
And I swear I'll marry you
Tomorrow
Oh yeah
Oh oh

A premeditated mantra
In the minds of mythical force
Dispairing flows inducing
When the body
Has run off its course

Flying high above the valley below
I see all the colours of the rainbow
Cover me with flowers
From the garden that we grow
And I swear I'll marry you
Tomorrow

You say we'll make a difference
The best is still yet to come
I dedicate this festival
To freedom

The calming voice of new order
In embracing stranglehold
From four corners of the planet
Have you heard?
Have you heard?

Flying high above the valley below
I see all the colours of the rainbow
Cover me with flowers
From the garden that we grow
And I swear I'll marry you
Tomorrow
Oh yeah
Oh oh[/quote]

Thanks for your help Dave, I'll include your suggestions in my initial message. Very Happy

Hmm. Sounds more like

The spirit flows unjinxing

I am pretty sure about "spirit", less on "unjinxing", but it is definitely not "inducing."

"Disparate flows on ginsing"

is what I hear.

but maybe

"The spirit flows on ginsing"

makes more sense.
