i had some doubts about it too , but when i checked on one of the translation sites i found it with a sample , but like u said cause it's awkward i had some fears but with the rest of the sentence it rhymed beautifully any way i'm going to think more and see what i pick... thanks lucinda ur such a dear

I had considered the word "utmost" at first and think it is a good choice, but it seemed a little awkward. A more likely use for "utmost" in English would read "endeavor to your utmost limit" or "give it your utmost effort". I'm not sure if you want to add words that aren't in the source text.
manalsalha (X) (asker) Apr 2, 2011:
i translated as " go to your utmost, go to the end of the world " do u think it's a nice translation as kind of poetry of just to keep on digging and pick one of your translation.... i will appreciate your kind feed back

seek your destiny

It's not clear whether the context is negative or positive. If positive or encouraging it could be "go to your destiny" or "seek your destiny", but if it is negative, with a meaning like "go to hell/go away", the translation could be "go to your destruction".

agree Lamis Maalouf : The rest of it makes me feel it is positive. In the meaning of searching near and far. I like your suggestion.
