Abwoon d’bwashmaya
Nethqadash shmakh

Nehwey tzevyanach aykanna d’bwashmaya aph b’arha
Hawvlan lachma d’sunqana yaomana

Metol dilakhie malkutha wahayla wateshbukhta l’ahlam almin. Ameyn

Some obvious ones in there are "malkuthakh" and "malkutha" which clearly resemble "Malkuth", the bottom Sephirah on the Tree of Life from Kabbalah. Malkuth means kingdom or ground in Kabbalah.

In many versions of the Lord's prayer, it is ended with "For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, forever and ever, Amen".

Note that Kingdom(Malkuth), Power(Geburah), and Glory(Hod), are all Sephiroth on the Tree of Life in Kabbalah.

Things like this lead me to think that the original prayer's meaning was essentially a "covering of the Sephiroth" of the Tree of Life...essentially an affirmative declaration by the person speaking it to embody Divine characteristics...name it and claim it...manifestation...that type of thing. And that makes sense too because that stuff is legit. That's how Qigong and other similar "faith healing practices" work.

Like you, I really like this translation, however I am not an Aramaic scholar so my ability to translate it is rather limited, and if some Aramaic scholar pressed me on the matter, I wouldn't choose to die on that hill.

That said, here is that alternative translation with my annotations included.

“O Cosmic Birther(Keter/Enlightenment, possibly Binah/Understanding, the Divine Mother) of all radiance( and vibration,
Soften the Ground(Malkuth/Kingdom) of our bodies and carve out a space within us where your presence can abide(perhaps Yesod/Foundation, the ether that interpenetrates all of physical reality).
Fill us with your Creativity(Netzach/Victory: creative genius), so that we may be in Power(Geburah/Power) to bear the fruit of Your mission.
Let each of our actions bear fruit in accordance with our desires. (Victory? Power?)
Endow us with the Wisdom(Chockmah/Wisdom) to produce and share what each being needs to grow and flourish.(Chesed/Mercy to share)
Untie the tangled threads of destiny that bind us, as we release others from the entanglement of past mistakes. (Karma, Chesed/Mercy)
Do not let us be seduced by that which would divert us from our true purpose that illuminates the opportunities of our present moment. (Chockmah/Wisdom in the form of discernment)
For you are the Ground(Malkuth/Kingdom), the Truthful Mission(Da’ath/Knowledge, wisdom chakra, truth), the Birth(Binah/Understanding, aka the Divine Mother?), the Power(Geburah/Power), and Fulfillment(Netzach/Victory?, Hod/Glory/Splendour?) as all is gathered and made whole again.
And so it is.”

Here it is clean:
“O Cosmic Birther of all radiance and vibration,
Soften the Ground of our bodies and carve out a space within us where your presence can abide.
Fill us with your Creativity, so that we may be in Power to bear the fruit of Your mission.
Let each of our actions bear fruit in accordance with our desires.
Endow us with the Wisdom to produce and share what each being needs to grow and flourish.
Untie the tangled threads of destiny that bind us, as we release others from the entanglement of past mistakes.
Do not let us be seduced by that which would divert us from our true purpose that illuminates the opportunities of our present moment.
For you are the Ground, the Truthful Mission, the Birth, the Power, and Fulfillment as all is gathered and made whole again.
And so it is.”
