The Hansu Hansuen text, translated as the King of Kings is a short monologue of a mythical Harāktian king. |
Łihiuanāh Łihiuan | Gloss | The King of Kings |
---|---|---|
Uīgīz, zī yoni īlōz, mī yōbinātł īcotzunīciz. | mortal.sg-acc, 2sg.m.nom who.nom q-be-2sg, thus 1sg-gen word-pl-dat q-test-refl-2sg-ipfv | Who are you to test yourself against my words, mortal? |
Hinoh īziromiz. | 1sg-acc q-neg-recognize-2sg-ipfv | Do you not know me? |
Hinoh uānoguaz quāliz īziromiz. | 1sg-gen face.sg-acc see-2sg-ipfv q-neg-recognize-2sg-ipfv | Can you not recognize my face? |
Stone remembers my face, and walls bear my name. | ||
Tłhūceda huēara tłiz iziquāquālin. | only blind-an.sg that-inan.sg.acc neg-sbjv-see-3sg.an | Only a blind man would fail to see that. |
Hinoz tacizhin, łihiuan. | 1sg-acc call-2sg-pfv, king.sg-nom | You called me a king. |
Mic hin ubo łihiuan izilōīn. | but 1sg.nom merely king.sg-nom neg-be-1sg | But I am not just a king. |
Ziyotł ītłōtzhīnoh, yoni lōīn. | Shall I tell you who I am? | |
Hin Łihiuanāh Łihiuan, hinōn cēdimēna izimozin. | I am the King of Kings; none is mightier than I. | |
My kingdom goes from the sea to the mountains and beyond the horizon, from the north to the south and from the east to the west – it is all my land, without borders. | ||
The sun, the wind, fire and water are mine to command. | ||
The day comes when I call it and the night with its stars and the moon on the night sky dare not show up until I'm done. | ||
I do not drink the same water as the mortals, nor do I eat the same bread as them. | ||
The whole world is my garden - I have created it and I rule it. | ||
The heavens envy me, and the gods stand before me humble. | ||
Yut hāzēna lōīn, tłihuān. | for great-cpr-sg.nom be-1sg, 3pl-an-pl-abl | For I am greater than they. |
Izicallimaz quaziz, hinotł duquipāxin tłi, li lōz, yeno īlōn. | Worthless human, compared to me, what is that which you are? | |
You are dust and you will remain dust when you die, while my garden will stand for an eternity and win against the tide of time. | ||
Yours is a house of bricks and wood, mine is a palace of stone, marble and gold. | ||
Hin ziyotł īzihuimīdīn, huāpātł belhexin izilōz. | 1sg.nom 2sg.m-dat q-neg-permit-1sg-ipfv, live-inf-dat means.sg-com neg-be-2sg | You cannot live if I do not permit you to. |
Ziyōh moznōtziz tłēguzpātł īyorōtzhezīn. | Am I obligated to tolerate your existence? | |
Ubo hinoh yozca lōz. | You are but a servant of mine. | |
I am the first among kings, the King of Kings. | ||
All things belong to me. | ||
From the smallest grain of dust to the tallest mountain, from the smallest drop of rain to the largest ocean, from a mouse in a field to an eagle high in the sky. | ||
Every dog and horse, soldier and weapon and treasure belong to me by right. | ||
Zī, izimoziz. | 2sg.nom, neg-exist-2sg | What about you? You are nothing. (lit. You don't exist) |
And this is my garden and I its king, the King of Kings. |
