I would like to have the following English phrase translated into Latin:

"Water mothered from light"

Intertran came up with ?unda matris ex lux lucis.? I'm not sure how
grammatically accurate it is. Also, could you provide a phoetic
translation as well, so that I know how to properly pronounce it?

Thank you!

It's hard to translate something without knowing the exact meaning of
the original. What do you mean by "Water mothered from light"?

metaphorically, I'm want it to mean that light gives birth to water,
where light takes on a female personification. I could have said
"water born from light," but I want in to be in a feminine form.

Thanks
