If I get it right,

"Go !" and "Leave !" would be "ko klama .i" and "ko cliva .i"

But what would be "Allons !" ?

First, "Allons !" means "let's come" and also "let's go"

But secondly, "Allons !" is also said by ME when I want to encourage
myself to go (or to leave)

(as if it was "let ME go", or "may I go")

How to say "let ME go" in the case the subject of the imperative is MYSELF ?

And how to say it in the case it can be either I or WE, --- and the
speaker intend to remain ambiguous ??
