Tomorrow, I'll post the translation for this.
I'm wondering how many can decipher it, today.

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

well, Sunshine, your response befuddles me entirely

guess I'm better at making puzzles than solving them. ;o}

I was sure you meant so, to add the vowels, but I certainly can't figure out which ones go where.

and Muys, you've really got me, unless the numbers indicate the position of the missing letters in the alphabet. If that's the case I'll go give it a try, when I have more time. Sheesh, my puzzle was easy, compared to this!/these!

nope, that can't be it!
