FOR FRODO
Text by PHILIPPA BOYENS, translation by DAVID SALO
( SINDARIN )
Ae na guil nín egor na ngurth nín
Gerin le beriad
Le beriathon
Le annon vegil nín
Cyll e-Gorv
Le annon beth nín
(( If by my life or d**h
I can protect you
I will
I give you my sword
Ringbearer
I give you my word. ))
Ú-erir aen han risto
Ú-erir aen han presto
Rúvo i rym
I aur hen ú bant!
(( It cannot be broken
Nor turned aside
Let the horns sound
This day is not done! ))
Isto Mordor han:
Elessar! Elessar!
Tellin i Chîr Gondor!
(( Let Mordor know this:
Elessar! Elessar!
The Lords of Gondor have come! ))

( SINDARIN )
Orthannen im vi ôl
Coll d dû
Or hiriath naur
Na rovail mae sui'waew
Man prestant i ardhon?
Cerithar aen illaid dim úthenin?
(( In a dream I was lifted up
Borne from the darkness
Above rivers of fire
On wings soft as the wind
What's happened to the world?
Is everything sad going to come untrue? ))
