I'm not looking for a full translation...

... just some guideposts and suggestions.
I want to use Dhekhnami as a kind of scaffolfing for an Orcish lanuage in a Pathfinder 2e game.
The text I want to translate is this:
For every drop of blood your weapon has shed
Gorum praises and thanks you
Blood for Gorum! Blood for Gorum!
For every drop of essence your nations have bled
Gorum praises and thanks you
Blood for Gorum! Blood for Gorum!
For every moment you've trained for war
Gorum praises and thanks you
Blood for Gorum! Blood for Gorum!
For every battle won,
A greater battle takes its place
Until we fall! And in the end,
we all fall. Even the Gods
have their time.
And yet we still go on. Why?
Be ready. Learn to face Horror in the eye
As I have done, and find your answers.
Your quest. Your Truth.
Hellblade fans will recognize the latter verses as being directly kited from Druth in Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice. I'm basically hope to use this text for in-game drama purposes. I don't know much about Dhekhnami aside from its existing, so anyone who knows more: your help would make a big difference.
