Dear Aglardhers,

the web hosting company will perform a software upgrade (PHP 4 to PHP 5) on the server that hosts Aglardh and EldarinWiki on the 7th of March, therefore disruptions may occur in the availability of both sites. Apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.

Anyone in the right mood to play 'don't-guess-the-language-and-don't-try-to-translate'? :-)

I blados malen umboth·vai,

Or i arimorna tumbaron

Or i arimorna tumbaron, sí ar tá
lanta helyanweo lane calima.
Pallanar i quinne ambonar
palyas linquilea vaimarya.
I yanta carina lelye armainen
anta vandar aurion caline.

Ingallo ítarille calo cúna
Hentanenye undu huinenna:
Fifírula tarmar iluména
tarir talmasse nwalyaina.
Etta calpanen helleo quiler
ar horonyen *quilya ambarenya luine.

Over dark dales now and then
sweeps a rainbow's shiny hem.
Far beyond the stony hillocks
it spreads its finely colored frock.
The bridge of delicate rays
gives promises of brighter days.

From the top of the bow of light
I glanced down into the night:

Derig erui vi morn
ar im - dannon sui gond
Le dewin. Bith dýr.
Ar i ú-iston, havol
vi dath hin chaer:
im le awarthannen
egor
Eru men awarthant bain.

you wait alone in the dark
and like a stone I fall.
I miss you. Words fail-
And what I don't know, sitting
in this pit, remote:
did I abandon you
or
God abandoned us all.

Hísie cápa
quínello línevea
or nessa arin

Mist leaps
from the crest cobweblike
over the young morning

Sí ar tá, armar
ríkar nore lintie
hísiquessillon

Now and then, rays of sunlight
try to run swiflty
from the mist-feathers

Har Orontumbar -
I henfanwa wintea
lerya vanie
Nendi nelde cálala
mi mírevea laiqua

Near Mount-Doom -
The eye-screen scatters
to set free beauty
three lakes shining
in gemlike green

Morna ...morenna
I norolinda lindo
ná hraicénima

Black ... upon black
the lightly tripping bird

Lassi Narqueliéve

Mon, 11 Feb 2008 14:08:39 +0000

This a rather loose rendering of a poem I wrote a long time ago.

This is the Quenya version:

amme amnútie nute ya samimme
er i merimme, ala cene exa
unótime mírimmar pia ambaremma
amme nurta illon mí vennasse

an i ulco ranyea armet sisse
sir yo tar réra rimbe húmarya,
sára hloimaya, saura teviéya,
lanta cuilelyanna ve ruxa ruive

mal emme hentar háyanna, ta mí sére
nurtamme imme nu lassi narqueliéve

--------

it is meant to mean:

let us bind strongly whatever we have
so that no other should see, only whom we want
our countless treasures our little world

Hungarian folk-tale, slightly adapted.
I hope it is intelligible so I won't give a translation, but I will be happy to answer any questions. Enjoy!

The few haiku that I shall post fom now on will be mostly souvenirs from my rambles last november under the "long white cloud".

Fanyamarello
~~hententie ambar ve~~

~~quanta tyalmaron~~
ve quanta tyalmaron ná
Mélamarilva

From the air
like filled with toys is
Our Home

Andafanyanor -
Vinye lámar tyávenyan
*Hísionnaron

Land of the Long White Cloud -
New sounds for my taste
of the Children of the Mist

Endalómisse
ettelea ilquanna
imya isilme

On midnight
upon everything foreign

the same moonlight

sie sís i nórie apaquenta
i lunga raxa rihta tá hauta
ar luitamme i laika nande
ungwale nainie qualme
oloiyar ve sirion linyenwa, taura
la lemya mal quilde nique, haura

*apaquenta: foretold, promised

so here is the promised land
the heavy cart stumbles then comes to stand
and we drench the green vale
death torture and wail
flood like a river, old and mighty
nothing remains just a big white silence

just a small piece, short study in rhythm:

~~Uruive~~ Uruisi lantaner menello
i raukar. Ulundoron coire
i kemen rihtane - osse haura
oloiyane i nór nu i mista lumbe.
Tá túle Herumor. ~~Ulumbe~~ Undume núra
hácane nu tályat.

Naira ~~firyane~~firinye mí quilde.
