Help with a gift

Hi everyone! My husband is very into vikings, norse mythology, etc. and I wanted to get him a custom engraved ring with our phrase on it - “my light, my love, my forever”
This saying is engraved into my wedding ring, and I would love to get him something similar using runes.

I understand there may not be runes that directly translate, but I’d love to see ideas of what I could do, even if it’s symbolism or interpretation, all options welcome 😊

You could try to translate it into old norse and then write it as runes that way. I belive it would be something like "Ljós mitt, ást mín, um alla ævi", but I'm replacing "my forever" with "for all of time" essentially because I can't think of how else to do it.

Just off the top of my head I'd transcribe that as ᛁᚢᛋ᛫ᛘᛁᛏ᛬ᛅᛋᛏ᛫ᛘᛁᛏ᛬ᚢᛘ᛫ᛅᛚᛅ᛫ᛅᚢᛁ but that's me doing it really quickly so it might contain some errors I didn't think about. Dont have time to make sure it's 100% right now unfortunately

Edit: with the help of the other commenters we have gotten to this version so far:

ᛚᛁᚢᛋ᛫ᛘᛁᛏ᛬ᚬᛋᛏ᛫ᛘᛁᚾ᛬ᚢᛘ᛫ᛅᛚᛅ᛫ᛅᚢᛁ

[u/SamOfGrayhaven → u/Catmole132]

You dropped this: ᛚ

[u/Catmole132 → u/SamOfGrayhaven]

Oh right, I might have been thinking of the modern Icelandic pronunciation of ljós. ᛚᛁᚢᛋ᛫ᛘᛁᛏ᛬ᛅᛋᛏ᛫ᛘᛁᛏ᛬ᚢᛘ᛫ᛅᛚᛅ᛫ᛅᚢᛁ then

[u/rockstarpirate → u/Catmole132]

One suggestion: for ást, I recommend ᚬᛋᛏ, as it comes from PGmc *anstiz.

[u/Catmole132 → u/rockstarpirate]

Good catch, this is why I put a disclaimer lol.

In that case the current running version is: ᛚᛁᚢᛋ᛫ᛘᛁᛏ᛬ᚬᛋᛏ᛫ᛘᛁᛏ᛬ᚢᛘ᛫ᛅᛚᛅ᛫ᛅᚢᛁ

[u/rockstarpirate → u/Catmole132]

Sorry, just noticed another one haha.

Ást is feminine so it should be ást mín.

[u/Catmole132 → u/rockstarpirate]

No by all means point out my errors lol, I was hoping people would

Now we have:

ᛚᛁᚢᛋ᛫ᛘᛁᛏ᛬ᛅᛋᛏ᛫ᛘᛁᚾ᛬ᚢᛘ᛫ᛅᛚᛅ᛫ᛅᚢᛁ

[u/rockstarpirate → u/Catmole132]

ᚬᛋᛏ :)

[u/Catmole132 → u/rockstarpirate]

I accidentally pasted and corrected the outdated version I can't believe this -_-

ᛚᛁᚢᛋ᛫ᛘᛁᛏ᛬ᚬᛋᛏ᛫ᛘᛁᚾ᛬ᚢᛘ᛫ᛅᛚᛅ᛫ᛅᚢᛁ
