DopDaq qul yIchenmoH QobDI' ghu'.

wej jIyaj.  qatlh wovmoHwI' chu'?  'Iv ghaH loD qan'e'?

(Actually my mind read {chu'} as "new" but I dropped it when I
typed... I thought it wasn't a grammatical sentence because it was the
title of a story or TV series or something: "New Light, Old Man", "Old
Man of New Light", etc.  The contrast between {qan} and {chu'} made me
interpret {chu'} as "new".  Daj.)
