Dovahzul Haikus

Voth dwiin sil ahrk tuz

Nonvul Bron prodah dinok

Nuz krif voth ahkrin

 

Would this work? I'm trying to see if I can use "dwiin" as both a verb and an adjective in the first line. Might be too poetic. I'm still not too terribly familiar with how various parts of speech interact in Dovahzul, and I'm experimenting a bit.

Also, am I leaving the second line too open to interpretation? The way I wrote it, it could mean either the Nord's death or just death in general. Would this be clarified by the juxtaposition of that phrase and "krif voth ahkrin"?

Also, am I looking too far into this for a simple haiku? :P

Dwiin works fine in that context. I feel the second line is vague enough to require an explanation. Alternatively you could use:

"Nonvul bron dreh drun dinok"

I was trying to imply that he could foresee his own death, but I'm not really sure how to convey that while staying within the syllable count. Regardless, haiku is fun! Let's try another...

Instead of "Dinok", could "Praanii" work?

That's a definite improvement! I might have to write this one down in runes some time. I like it much more with that edit.

 

Also, Zin, that made me chuckle. Pruzah pel!

This is much more accurate to the meaning I was trying to imply. And now I know the word Daan! Kogaan med pah tiid, Frinmulaar!

[Drem yol lok wah hi,]

[Zu'u lost goraan bo het,]

[Nii los pruzah het!]

 

Drem yol lok wah hi,

Zu'u lost goraan bo het,

Nii los pruzah het!

(I'm new so that might be a bit wrong, sorry if it is!) :)

@Suleykvulsos very close. I don't think zu'u is two syllables though. You could adjust it to:

Zu'u lost goraan wah bo her!

Zu'u can be one as in casual speech or two as in careful speech.

Jul laan "wo med rah?"

Ruz Rah tinvaak wah fin jul

"Hon pah vomed Rah."

 

I'm not very creative when it comes to literature so I just based it off of my name.
