Macbeth Translation?

Question

I'm performing Lady M's sleepwalking scene from that Scottish play as a monologue, and I'm wondering if someone could please translate the script for me?

..And any tip's you may have for when i choreograph the scene?

Thanks heaps!!

"Yet here's a spot.

--Out, damned spot! Out, I say! One: two: why, then 'tis time to do 't. h**l is murky. Fie, my lord, fie! A soldier, and afeard? What need we fear who knows it, when none can call our power to accompt? Yet who would have thought the old man to have had so much blood in him?

--The Thane of Fife had a wife. Where is she now? What, will these hands ne'er be clean? No more o' that, my lord, no more o' that! You mar all with this starting.

--Here's the smell of blood still. All the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand. Oh, oh, oh!

--Wash your hands; put on your night gown; look not so pale! I tell you yet again, Banquo's buried. He cannot come out on 's grave.

--To bed, to bed! There's knocking at the gate. Come, come, come, come, give me your hand! What's done cannot be undone. To bed, to bed, to bed!"

Not much translation really needed...just imagine you've murdered someone and you don't want to get caught...the magnitude of your undertaking has finally hit you and you're terrified...you just know that someone will find you out...so you see a "spot", real or imaginary is neither here nor there...and yet, you believe your position insulates you from reprisal...but there is more at stake then your mortal body, there is your soul to consider...which is why she asks, "will these hands ne'er be clean?"  and "all the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand".  Yet, she is pragmatic, so in the end she says, "what's done cannot be undone" and wishes only to go to bed.  When you choreograph this scene, try method acting...put yourself in her shoes and consider the guilty thoughts that are running through her mind and how she attempts to deal with guilt and a belief she cannot be harmed because of her position as Lady MacBeth.
