Is anyone skilled enough to help me translate the lines below into Navi? The translators online don't work very well and I want to at-least try my best with having accurate sentences and proper sentence structure. It's for a friends fan film, any help is appreciated!

LINE1: Everything we built together, you are burning it to the ground.

LINE2: Don't do this...

LINE3: I'm not doing anything. You're the one abandoning a friend.

LINE4: You just can't be happy for me if it doesn't involve you.

LINE5: No, I can't be happy for an enemy

One of the rules we teach beginners is "translate the meaning, not the words". The translations I'm about to provide will follow that convention- they're not exact but should convey the same meaning.

LINE1: Everything we built together, you are burning it to the ground.
Ngal skera'a fra'ut a awngal ngolop.

LINE2: Don't do this...
Fìkem rä'ä si...

LINE3: I'm not doing anything. You're the one abandoning a friend.
Kekem ke si. Txerìng 'eylanti ngal.

LINE4: You just can't be happy for me if it doesn't involve you.
Oeri nga ke tsun 'ivefu nitram txo tsafpom ngaru ke livu.

LINE5: No, I can't be happy for an enemy
Kehe, kxuturi ke tsun oe 'ivefu nitram.

Others may have their own takes on this, but that's my translation.
