Omeina Babel Text (vs. 1-9)

1. Ai andon tirealla omeina bai, kinan omno.
2. Ai menella únenen, aila gúne illa Simaralon, o aila goran alle alion.
3. Ailassi óme, "ke tóman guriku, o mali raigehe". Ai hári gurikuke, laku
dundoke.
4. Aila óme "Ke tóman tira ontoa beidani oirion, o kemassi alka osteina, he
belassi batsi andalla".
5. Aitea ainua mene beren tira ontoa, aila ton enate anoin.
6. Aitea ainua óme, "Berku! Nahe gere bai, o nahe liro omeina bai, o niahe
goina tennalean; o ben úna lilde hendime".
7. "Ken meneman naksu omeinale, he belassi duihe".
8. He aiteate ainuali alinen andalla, o aila lengi ton onto.
9. He Babel ai ostene, gu aiteate ainua naksu omeina gerean, o ainuali
batsin andalla.

Incidentally, I now have a syllabary for Omeina, and the above text will be
