De'vID, I really do like the sentiment of [baj] much better than [vum],
thanks for the suggestion.

ghunchu'wI', what is the difference in sense between [ghob] and [Suv] that
makes you prefer it?

What about this draft?

DaHjaj  qanay/DaHjaj  qaSaw
reH  qatlhej  ‘e’  vI’Ip
reH  SoHvaD  jISuv  ‘e’  vI’Ip
reH   juHlIj  ‘oH  juHwIj’e’ ‘e’  vI’Ip (so far so good)
maHaghruptaHjaj
maQaHchuqjaj  (I think the sentiments are clearer in this form, but I'm not
sure -jaj has enough of the feeling of a vow, it feels more like a toast to
me.)
