THE ENTS
text by PHILIPPA BOYENS, translation by DAVID SALO
( SINDARIN )
Rithannen i geven
Thangen i harn
Na fennas i daur
(( Earth shakes,
Stone breaks,
The forest is at your door. ))
Ôl dûr ristannen
Eryn echuiannen
I ngelaidh dagrar
(( The dark sleep is broken,
The woods have awoken,
The trees have gone to war. ))
Ristar thynd, cúa tawar
Dambedir enyd i ganed
Si linna i waew trin ylf
Isto i dur i chuiyl
I ngelaidh dagrar.
(( Roots rend, wood bends,
The Ents have answered the call.
Through branches now the wind sings.
Feel the power of living things.
The trees have gone to war. ))
