I share your interest in writing scripts! In fact I have two scripts of my own that I created some time back. I might post it later today (as I do not presently have it handy).

And yes, XeTeX is my choice of poison. I lament though a lack of professional looking serifized Hungarian Rune fonts. I don't suppose you are also a font-maker extraordinaire too?

This isn't really a proper fitting of Hiragana to Hungarian--that would take more time and attention--but I'm curious as to what you think of it:

あたやいだ えめれけ みにでおろけ えれじぬ べねで
a-ta-ya-i-da e-me-re-ke mi-ni-de-o-ro-ke e-re-yi-nu be-ne-de

し れぎゅ めちし あ よゔねど ねめぜでけけねけ
shi re-gyu me-chi-shi a yo-vu-ne-do ne-me-ze-de-ke-ke-ne-ke

I tried to use reasonable close sounds where the right one is not provided for by the Hiragana table I used, and tried to keep vowel harmony where the consonants I need is not paired with the vowel I need.

How is it for a first try?

I also wish I could come up with a more lyrical translation of the phrase... but, alas, my own attempts just come out different from your own, not really better in any aesthetic sense.

Hello Ahi,

Yuor Hiragana rewriting is impressive - congratulations.
I am not a font-maker - I simply like beautiful scripts.
In my spare (never enough) time I used to play with latex,xetex and similar word processing tools.
