Á caita lissë ar lumba carelya
Lóm lantëa; utliel mettann lendava
Á humë sí álen óla quenion tuller nó
Tultëantë olla haira falassello
Man nyénlyo cast? Man nier sinë antalyassë?
Rato istuvalyë ilyë caurelyar autuvar
Varn rancunyats, nalyë er lorna
Refrain
Man polil cen i menllénassë?
Mana i cast i ninq maiwi ramar?
Olla i ëar marya Isil orta
ciryar utlier colien mardenna
Ar lli queruv telp calcanna
Cala i nenessë, ily fear^autar
stel sinta i ambarenna lómva
Ter lëor lantëar t enyal_llo ar lúmello
Áv quet utlielvë sí i mettanna
Ninq falss tultëar, le^ar ni hostuvar ata
Refrain
Ar nauval sís rancunyats, er lorna
Ar lli queruv telp calcanna
Cala i nenessë, sind ciryar^autar
Númenna.
Heartbreakingly beautiful, the second song I've heard whose performer/writer got it right! Absolutely stunning!
My friend Julie (the one in the video) translated it! I believe she found a two different translations online and used them as a basis. She knows a lot about Elvish and the grammar, so she fixed the translations to fit the flow of the song and still make sense in Quenya.
Basically I have no idea how she did it but yes, I agree, it's awesome! :P :)
This is beautiful in a heart-breaking way. For some reason, I couldn't bear to watch the two of you smiling as you played and sang in that field 😢😢😢...it reminded me of the history of the Elves in Arda, especially the end of the Third Age.
Thank you for this soul-stirring rendition ❤
Well done girls! I hope to see more!
She was awesome!!!! Of course she my sis so it doesn't really mean much for me to say that(:
wow
i´m breathless
That's awesome! You have so amazing voice!!! Like it:)
Amazing video.
omg this not a dream? into the west in Quenya? awesome
Very good, I liked it a lot! Adimiro this girl, besides singing well know the language very well Elfica. I would like to learn. How can I do a course in Quenya?
How did you translate this? It's amazing.
where is this video made?
I can't say much about the lyrics on this song since I don't know Quenya well. But there are a couple of things that caught my attention. Consonant clusters, like having two l's and one more consonant together, terrible :€ Also, the pronunciation is quite off... I recommend learning to read a language before trying to do this. Otherwise, I really like the way it looks and sounds. I might have listened to this more if it just was real Quenya. :( Now don't let yourself feel down because of me... If you're not into learning the phonetics etc, you could take songs in a language you know and start from there, choosing beautiful ones to arrange into beautiful videos. Have a pleasant day :) Namárie!
+Lendórassë Laicasánë Do you by any chance use Goodreads?
Why not be a Telerin or other Quenyan dialect. The only recommendation is "c" is always "k." But it sounds prettier with "s" - you did a great job!
Vana linde, Velethriel!
the voice is absolutely beautiful and lyrics fit into melody well. but i regret to say this, pronunciation is really really bad and almost totally wrong, it sounds nothing like quenya. congratulations and thank you for playing this but I had to say those things, meant no offense, i just felt sorry for it could have been perfect.
OH yes.... Sing harder..... mhmhmhmhm
