[HANASHIR:12318] Re: Hafinjan - lyrics question.

[Ros Schwartz <ros_schwartz...>]

So:  are we passing the finjan around the circle, pouring ourselves hot coffee 
as we sit around the campfire?

Or:  are we dancing in a circle, around the finjan at the centre?

Or:  is the finjan suspended from a tripod kind of thing over the fire, and 
spinning around and around as it heats up?

One last point:  pronunciation:  is the j pronounced as a j, "finjan", or as a 
y, "finyan"?

Thanks again,

- Ros
