And another from paq'raD, Canto 19, Stanza 5 (spoken by Molor to Kahless):
bIlay'DI' qaHarbe'
[...]
jIlay'DI' reH batlh jIpabchugh
Qapla'meywIj Hoch vIta'ta' 'e' DaHar'a'
Your word means nothing to me,
[...]
Did you think that my word of honor
Would have carried me this far?
and yet another from paq'raD, Canto 2 (page 101):
loDnI'wI'
bIQeHba'
chaq batlh bIvangqa'laH
My brother, I see your anger,
You might have a chance
To make amends.
