Galadriel: "I amar prestar aen. Han mathon ne nen. Han mathon ne chae. A han noston ne 'wilith. "
Translation: "The world is changed. I feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air."

Aniron (Theme for Arwen and Aragorn)
O mor henion i dhu:
Ely siriar el sila
Ai! Aniron Undomiel

Tiro! El eria e mor.
I lir en el luitha uren.
Ai! Aniron...
Translation:
From darkness I understand the night:
dreams flow, a star shines
Ah! I desire Evenstar

Look! A star rises out of the darkness.
The song of the star enchants my heart.
Ah! I desire...

u guys r crazy how can u speak that shit it is soo hard

welll the pronounciation aint that bad once u can find the right guide

Have you got a site for DeNiro to pick up the tongues of the Elves?---perhaps that could help. 📖

I'm still working on getting the pronunciation down. It reminds me of so many other languages--including German, and its hard to keep the different rule apart. 😕

Elvish.org has links for the Elvish lines from the movie

( Sorry, I cannot add links until I am more well known 😮P )

i love
A si duarth u ortho. U or le a u or nin..
: The world have not spread his darkness. Not on you, not on me..
(something like that, i don't know the perfect sentence..)

📖 (Elvish.org) Did you mean this?

arwen: A si i-Dhúath ú-orthor, Aragorn.
arwen: Ú or le a ú or nin.
...
arwen: Renich i lú i erui govannem?
aragorn: Nauthannen i ned ôl reniannen.
arwen: Gwennin in enninath...
arwen: Ú-'arnech in naeth i si celich.
arwen: Renich i beth i pennen?

arwen: 'The Shadow does not hold sway yet' [Lit. 'Till now the Shadow not masters, Aragorn.']
Arwen: 'Not over you and not over me.'
...
arwen: 'Do you remember the time when we first met?'

aragorn: 'I thought I had strayed into a dream'
arwen: 'Long years have passed...'
Arwen: 'You did not have the cares you carry now.'
Arwen: 'Do you remember the word I told you?'

I like this one.
The Fellowship of the Ring:

Arwen: "Frodo, im Arwen. Telin le thaed. Lasto beth nin, tolo dan nan galad."

Arwen: " I am Arwen,I've come to help you. Hear my voice, come back to the light. [ lit."Frodo,I (am) Arwen.I come to help you. Listen to my word, come back to ( the) light."]

This really sounds magical. 😊 😊

i have a small quote [i will post more].

amin mela lle

i love you

quiv yassen ne' agar,
ten almere, atear, ar 'aina neva

awaken with out blood,
for bliss, peer and happiness nears

enjoy. ; )

This is Feanor's reply in the Silmarillion chap. 9
Ve i taura tanon ea i nurmean
almárea carna ya cuileryo tertucis
erya lúmenna tenna i metta telima;
tana carnasse indorya seruva.
Nai panta hwarmar turuvan i alcaro
mírinyais; nan tennoio úvante encárine.
Íre i mirilli mánya hatuva,
ara te hatuvas hón sina: - andácina
yévan, Aman-nóresse yesta ilye Eldaron.
Tava úvan tyaro mirima indonen;
nai mauyuvar ni táre i Valar: entave
anwe onóror istuvanyet Melcoro!

trans.

As for the great maker there is for the lesser
a blissful work that in his life he carries through
on one occasion only to the final conclusion;
in that work his mind then will rest.
Maybe I shall be able to open the locks of the radiance
in my treasures; but never then will they [lit.: for ever they will not] be remade.
If my hand must break the jewels,
beside them it will break this heart:
I shall be, in Aman-land first of all Elves.
Of that I will not be the agent with a free mind;
let the Powers then constrain me: thus
I shall know them to be true brothers of Melcor!

This is the ring poem - "One ring..."

Nelde Cormar Eldatárin nu Tarmenel,
Otso Herunaucoin hrótassen ondova,
Nerte Fírimoin marte nurunen,
Er i More Herun mormahalmas hárala
Morinóreva mí arda, már i fuinion.
Er Corma ilyar turien ar tuvien te,
Er Corma tucien ar móresse nutien te
Morinóreva mí arda, már i fuinion.

@feanor: this version starts with "three rings for the elven kings under the sky", I think

Quotes from the books:

Elen síla lumenn' omentielvo

(an entish description of Lórien 🙂 )

Ye! utúvienyes!

Utúlie'n aure! Aiya Eldalie ar Atanatári, utúlie'n aure!
The day has come! Look, peoples of the Eldar and Fathers of Men, day has come!

A Túrin Turambar turun'ambartanen
O Túrin, master of doom by doom mastered

Anar calúva tielyanna
The sun shall shine over your path

Alae! Ered en Echoriath, Ered e-mbar nín!
Behold, the trees of the encircling mountains, the trees of my home!

Lacho calad! Drego morn!

Lament for Gandalf in Lorien

Quenya

A Olórin i yáresse
Mentaner i Númeherui
Tírien i Rómenóri,
Maiaron i oiosaila
Manan elye etevanne
Nórie i malanelye?

Sindarin

Mithrandir, Mithrandir! A Randir Vithren!
Ú-reniathach i amar galen
I reniad lín ne môr, nuithannen
In gwidh ristennin, i fae narchannen
I Lach Anor ed ardhon gwannen
Calad veleg, ethuiannen.

English Translation: Quenya text:

'Olórin whom long ago
sent the Lords of the West
to guard the Lands of the East,
ever-wise of the Maiar
what drove you to leave [lit. 'why you left']
land which you loved?'

Sindarin text:

'Mithrandir, Mithrandir, O Pilgrim Grey
No more you will wander the world green
Your journey in darkness stopped
The bonds cut, the spirit broken
The Flame of Anor has left this World
Great light has gone out.'

Tinúviel elvanui
Elleth alfirin edhelhael
O hon ring finnil fuinui
A renc gelebrin thiliol

Tinúviel the elven-fair,
Immortal maiden elven-wise,
About him cast her shadowy hair
And arms like silver glimmering
