vIQoyDI', 'ej vIlaDDI', <yImay> vImaS. 'ach mujbej. :-)
When I hear this, and when I read this, I prefer {yImay}. But it's wrong.

We just have to think more klingon.
loQ taQ <yImay'eghmoH> 'e' vIHar je.
I also think that <yImay'eghmoH> sounds a little weird.
(But that's the way it is.)
'ach yIqIm: may'eghnISmoHchugh vay', vaj DaH maybe'!
But pay attention: if someone has to become fair, he was not fair before!

Maybe it's better to say "while you govern, be continously fair"
Or should this then be {bIqumtaHvIS yImay'eghmoHtaH} ???
{bIqumtaHvIS bImaynIS} is still the best way, in my opinion.
