What would the words "let" and "control" translate into?

I was trying to translate the sentence: "Don't let the things you can't control control you."

and there was no translation listed for "let" or "control".

If anyone would know either of these words in the elegant Dovahzul, I would be very grateful.

That phrase is elegant or appealing in English because of repetition of words and letters, as well as the concept behind it.

In Dovahzul, control is conveyed by:

uth - command
rel - rule
qiilaan - bowing down/submitting
thaarn - obey

My suggestion:

Ni qiilaan us rel do daar tol hi nis rel.
"Don't bow down to the rule of that (that/which) you can't rule.
