One thing especially important here is the absence of non-Roman scripts where they would normally be used (Greek, Russian, etc).
I can tell you though:
O'odham- "Añi añ sem hohid" Hopi- "Nuʼ umi unangwáyʼta" Zuni: "Tom ho' ichema" Yiddish: "איך האָב דיך ליב "
I know a lot of others (especially in Arizonan languages) but it's too much trouble to type the lot of them (special characters).

Here is a list I collected approx. a year ago - not all useable, but most of them. At this moment I just don't have the time to start a page with another phrase, so if someone would like to create it on any wiktionary using language templates like {{en}} etc., please let us know the link (so we can easily transfer it). During the week-end I can record the sentences in German and Italian (vor St. Valentine and I love you).

It would be fun to do sound recordings of "I love you" in dozens of languages, as we did for the "Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year" project.
