Gilraen's Memorial Lyrics & Chords By Howard Shore

GILRAEN'S SONG
text by PHILIPPA BOYENS, translation by DAVID SALO
( SINDARIN )

A chéneg a ionneg
Danna si fuin.
Tolo na rengy nin,
Beriathon.

(( Little boy, little one,
Night is falling.
Come into my arms,
Let me hold you safe. ))

A núriel annant
Trin aduial,
Ne dúath roeg dagech
Ne theilien.

(( But still you run
Through the twilight,
Lost in your play
Slaying demons in the shadows. ))

A chéneg a ionneg
Pant galu pant glas.
A naenatha hún nín
Ne chinn lín cenim...

(( Little boy, little one,
Full of grace, full of joy.
Oh, my heart will break
For I see it in your eyes... ))

Le iôn adar lín,
Û iôn naneth lín.

(( You are your father's son,
Not your mother's child. ))
