I would like to translate Bismillah Ir-Rahmani Ir-Rahim into Toki Pona.
The parts I'm struggling with are the Rahma part, and the Raheem part, as they encompass similar but subtly different meanings of Mercy.
Rahma is more closely associated with motherly love. Rahim is more of an extreme mercy regardless of what is being forgiven.
I haven't found a translation for mercy, let alone one that encompasses these subtle differences.
toki!
Toki Pona has a word for mercy, and it is simply olin, just like love, tenderness, warmth, etc.
For instance:
mi jo e olin tan sina
(I have mercy because of you), or
mi jo e olin tawa sina
(I have mercy for you).
Maybe something like: "jan sewi li pana e olin tawa jan li lawa pona la lon nimi ona."
If you wanted to write it in what looked like arabic there is an adaptation of Arabic for English that could be also used for toki pona here.
یاَن سِوئ لئ پانا اِ اُولین تاوا یاُن لئ لاوا پُونا لا نئمئ اُونا.
lon nimi jan sewi Allah pi ni: ona li pilin e ale li pilin e (jan) pona.
