Yes I chose the Dream scorpion for fireflies seemed appropriate-they light up and signify the coming of age.  Anyway there may be mistakes, if so kindly respond to them, and some parts are naturally fudged on grammar or wording to accommodate the lines.  Enjoy!

QuoteAykali'weya


Ke spivaw menari ngeyä
Txo txana aykali'weya
Kifkey Eywa'evengäru atan tivìng
Fay'u mì ayutral tok
Ulte tompa fratseng ngop
Nga spayaw oe kawng lu, oe kayllkxem ko

New oe spivaw, kifkey
Eywa'evengä kìm nìmawey
Ke new oe txen lu pehrr tsun oe hivahaw
Fra'u ke lu pxel fay'u lam

Aykali'weya oeru lu yawne
Ulte fo tawru atan tìng
Na fol kar oeti sreu si
Tawsìpìri 'em oe tok
Sreuri kip oe tok
Atan lehasey lu stum

New oe spivaw, kifkey
Eywa'evengä kìm nìmawey
Ke new oe txen lu pehrr tsun oe hivahaw
Fra'u ke lu pxel fay'u lam
Oe hìyahaw

Atan 'ivì'awm
Rutxe, oeti mivunge ta fìtseng
Tsun ke oe hivahaw
Rutxe, oeti mivunge ta fìtseng
Pelun oe slu letìhahaw
Rutxe, oeti mivunge ta fìtseng
Talun tsun ke oe hivahaw

Fpi txana aykali'weya
Ke new oe san kìyevame.
Ulte kop lu tompa

Txo ayunil oeyä hiyìk slivu

Like I said I just cranked this out so there could be errors.  Please... constructive criticism only!

Nice! They played the clip of this song just before every single Avatar showing I went to. I always though it fitted the movie pretty well. One more reason to love this song!

Wait are you saying that you've translated it so that it would fit the melody too?!

Yeah it does fit the melody...just like in English songs there are so helper words you read quickly but it's doable

OMG I just tried to sign it and a side from one of two exceptions it fit perfectly. Very nice job Tseyk Tìriuä! I'll definitely try to learn it ;)

Haha ty I tried to get the concept of each line and still fit it in (which is probably accounting for the 1 or 2 mishaps).  But I'm glad you enjoy it.

I tried but i couldn't sing it with melody :(
I can't see you from here!

Tseyk Tìriuä

It takes a little practice (it does work though xD)

We need to re-record it and ask it to be on the Fireflies single ;)

Haha we need to get it on iTunes any great singers? (I'm decent but not great xD)

I am good at signing but my Na'vi is still a bit rusty so you can't count on me right now. I think the admin of this forum did I See You and he looked very good.

mkay well pronunciation isnt a huge deal I mean I could walk anyone through it...or provide a "sample copy" just for pronunciation reference.


Tengkrr tìsngä'i Yawäl peyä tsenget ulte kifkey Yawä'evangäti ngamop.

Meuia te Stxeli Tstew'itan

It's not the Na'vi pronunciation which really bother me. It is speaking it so that it fit correctly that I'm not really up to yet. Next weeks it will change though ;)

Haha well alright maybe we can get a good singer/awesome pronouncer for the song...tht would be awesome

IT FITS! :D

Very Good Job!

And a very brave move to translate a whole song... It worked out though :D
