Kìyevame, sa'nokä tsmuke

Lamu kinä-a trr, tsmuke a oeyä sa'nok tamerkup. Foe lamu zam pxeyvol tsìng zìsìt.
Foe lamu spxin txana srr.

Hahaw nìltsan, ma sa'nokä tsmuke. Ngeyä tirea Eywahu set.

Trray feyä tokx pìyate mì txep. Oe sì oeyä tsmuke kìyä tsatseng ulte pìylltxe san Eywa ngahu.

Until we meet again, aunt.

Seven days ago, the sister of my mother (my aunt) died. She was 92* years old.
She had been sick for many days.

Sleep well, aunt. Your spirit is with Eywa now.

Tomorrow her body will be placed in the fire (cremation). My sister and I will go there and say 'goodbye'.

*Actual Na'vi number is 134, which is 92 in octal.
zam = 64
pxeyvol = 3 x 8 = 24
tsìng = 4
Totals to 64+24+4=92
