The grace of undómiel - feat. renee fleming lyrics
by Howard Shore
THE EVENING STAR
Text by PHILIPPA BOYENS, translation by DAVID SALO
( SINDARIN )
Ngîl cennin eriel vi
Menel aduial
Glingant sui mîr
Síliel mae
(( I saw a star rise high in
The evening sky
It hung like a jewel
Softly shining. ))
Ngîl cennin firiel vi
Menel aduial
Dûr, dûr i fuin
Naenol mae
(( I saw a star fade in
The evening sky
The dark was too deep and so light died
Softly pining. ))
An i ú nathant
An i naun ului
A chuil, anann cuiannen
A meleth perónen
(( For what might have been
For what never was
For a life long lived
For a love half given. ))
