The Waters Flow

Postby Thria on Mon Feb 04, 2013 3:20 am

A Water Tribe prayer for life's journey; translated to common below, the cadence of the common words fits to "The Steward of Gondor".
====
Yi Ninopani Glat
====
Yi taj chamat ren,
Ninopani chamat glat.
Le op cal cay zel ki'av

Kojo le Luxa,
Hasha, Xela le Rotare,
Cux op frin ki etana'kalva.

Shuke triesta reenya ray
Boba nicon le nina
E rex syon yi tola cinte.

====
The snow will fall,
Waters will flow
And we have so far to go

Fire and Void
Forest, Earth and Light
As we walk to endless night.

Lady guide us
Through cloud and rain
I would see the sun again

[I am aware that Rotare translates to Celestial; in vulpani, the prayer names the other Tribes; for common, artistic license changes it to Light to rhyme.]

I love it, and as the person who writes the Vulpani language, it makes me very happy to see people writing poetry in it. =D>
