ÖDJEL ASTITVAD

Ödjel astitvad
B havakar viszpad
Mahoitenyan vizlumber z tem balesduli
Nemu da mustahil
Vondar da nekesali
Aun bi solodim: bibekecz da mottainai

Malukele nakodyuny
Kay l kanntarus, l üresi
Kes yoru ni, mi okazijadulyuny: ti da al brakumya-ni
Zerabi, da polnostel koli
Fi kutabyuny, dore lat?
Ojeni, mi deri novile prazani utcak

THERE WAS AN ANGEL

There was an angel
He whispered about love
Illusion of his magical hands was left in my hand
Sleep is impossible
Hope is remorseless
Even the sun has said to itself: rising is pointless

I was crying like crazy
Empty bottle in my hand
Tonight I was celebrating that you're in someone else's embrace
Miserable, completely lonely
If I'm dying - who cares
Today I was like empty streets again

THE GERUNDIVE

In Seylum language, the suffix is -ny.

nakocz → nakoyu → nakoyuny
to cry → I cry → I'm crying

okazijacz → larat okazijalyu → larat okazijalyuny
to celebrate → I celebrate the life → I'm celebration the life

The gerundive suffix can be applied to every tense and person of the verb. And it requires a link vowel if the conjugated verb ends with consonant.
