| | Hi Casper, Minny's translation and your version have the exact same meaning, just with a different structure. Why do you think we should invert the original?  |

| | Wouldn't "...am I superior" be the word order for a question? |

| | No, in this case there must be an inversion due to the word "Only" which starts the line.
So the correct word order is:
"Only on the top am I superior" |

I thought you could translate it to something more beautiful, but I don't think I'm going to use this, but thanks anyhow! :o) |
