ANGMAR
Text by J.R.R. TOLKIEN and PHILIPPA BOYENS, translation by DAVID SALO
( SINDARIN )
Dollost - dîr cuoil
Ú-ar nin degi
(( You fool - no living man
Can kill me! ))
Le achelithar aen
Athar fuin ban
Rhaw lín mannen
Ind tharn lín
Lanc na chen be-thobas
(( You will be born away
Beyond all darkness;
Your flesh devoured
Your shriveled mind
Left naked to the lidless eye. ))
Anant i vaethor ú-ritha
Hên Rohan
Fim sui anghathel
Bain a goeol
(( But still the soldier did not move
Child of Rohan
Slender as a steel-blade
Fair yet terrible. ))
Na vedui istant
Na vedui cenn
Dîr ú-naun hon...
Vess e tiriant
(( Too late he knew
Too late saw
This was no man...
He looked upon a woman ))
