night and day

Intl'eyu
...is a word  to describe both very early
morning or any time it is  night-time dark. Fluent speakers are very clear in the pronunciation of this word and are cautious to use the word in a complete sentence as it can be construed as an insult as well.
Intl'eyu diiya?
This morning - where are you going?
"A day dawns,
quite like other days;
in it,
a single hour comes;
quite like other hours;
but in that day and
in that hour the
chance of a lifetime
faces us."
