HYMN TO ELBERETH
text by J.R.R. TOLKIEN, translation by DAVID SALO
( SINDARIN )
A Elbereth Gilthoniel
Silivren penna m´riel
O menel aglar elenath!
Na-chaeared palan-díriel
O galadhremmin ennorath.
Fanuilos le linnathon
Nef aear, sí nef aearon!
(( O Elbereth Star-kindler
There slants down like shining jewels
From heaven the glory of the stars!
After gazing afar into the distance
From tree-tangled Middle-earth.
Snow-white, I sing to you
Beyond the sea, here beyond the great sea! ))

FOOTSTEPS OF DOOM
text from J.R.R. TOLKIEN, adapted by PHILIPPA BOYENS, translation by DAVID SALO
( SINDARIN )
Man sí minna?
Man ammen toltha i dann hen Amarth?
I annan darthant dam morn
Si dannatha.
(( Who enters here?
Who brings to us this token of Doom?
That which has stood so long against the darkness
Will now fall. ))
