Hymn of Light in Jauhmø script of late 5th era

Demufuu Iwar

Hamkomtu bos kuus wöbusee
muktare rranox tef'rece
aa Iwa, Iwa iware.

Parom boo sa Nityr töshee
sökomas öhaly solle
aa Iwa, Iwa iware.

Caxaa ocaa bomeniite
ros lektu bos rromarece
aa Iwa, Iwa iware.

Böjom' Netes dut tolsike
iji vopesh Nityr arree
aa Iwa, Iwa iware.

The Hymn of Light

Please, raise us from the abyss
heal diseaseful world
oh Light, bright Light.

With You we will go to war
may the night not come
oh Light, bright Light.

You are being the only right
for You rule us all
oh Light, bright Light.

We listen to You with our sight
Your more divine words shine
oh Light, bright Light.
