Me singing a translation of Into the West into Quenya by Ryszard Derdzinski.
Quenya is one of the Elvish languages that Tolkien created. While more is known about it than Sindarin, Quenya is still an incomplete language, so unfortunately the translation is not 100% accurate. For example there is no known word for 'gulls', so this is translated as 'maiwi', meaning 'birds'.
Númenna (Into the West)
A Caita carelya ammelda ar moiana.
Lanta i lómë, utúlielyë tiëo mettanna.
A lorë si, ar óla len i epë tuller.
Entë yaitar hrestallo pella.
Manen neyilyë? Mallo niër antalyassë?
Rato cenuvalyë sa ilyë caurelyar autuvar,
varna mi inya ranqui.
Man cenilyë eccaianna?
Manen i maiwi ninqui yaitar?
Arta i Eär Isil néca amorta -
Ciryar utúlier an yulu le márelya.
Rómen ahyuva ve hyellë telpina,
i cála nenissë. Ilyë fëar autar.
I Estel vinta ambarenna lómëo,
ter fuini lantala, pella enyalië ar lúmë.
Áva quetë: "Si utúlielwë mettanna".
Hresta ninquë yáma - elyë ar inyë ata ómentuvalwë.
Ar elyë nauva sinomë mi inya ranqui.
Man cenilyë eccaianna?
Manen i maiwi ninqui yaitar?
Arta i Eär Isil néca amorta -
Ciryar utúlier an yulu le márelya.
Ar ilyë ahyuva ve hyellë telpina,
i cála nenissë. Ciryar mistë autar
Númenna.

If you want to learn how to pronounce Quenya take a look at Helge Kåre Fauskanger's Quenya course:

Vanya! Tolkien would be proud

@esser326 13 лет назад

Lovely work! I have always been moved to tears by this song & even more so in teh Quenya tongue. Thank you so very much for taking the time to create & share this with us all.

@PandorasParadiso 9 лет назад

Wow I can't believe there's a Quenya version of this song!! I want to make a version of it with piano, I wonder if I could 'borrow' your lyrics, I will OF COURSE credit you and your channel, among with your video... This is so enchanting! I have been wanting to sing in either Quenya or Sindarin and now I feel I can do it...! Thank you for this!

Dude you should help this one guy with creating a course for sindarin or quenya on duolingo (language learning program)

@michaelsvesta 14 лет назад

I wanted to say thank you for this. I wish I had seen it several years ago. My mother fell in love with LOTR after I got her into it. When she heard it, she had a special request. So not only did I officiate her funeral, but I sang Into the West, acapella for her. If I had known the translation, I would have done both Quenya and English, she would have loved it! Kudos! Love, Light and Laughter, Vesta

@JaySeraphon 4 года назад

I enjoyed this. It was a challenge, but I was pleased to have gotten all the pronunciations correct.

@alisonappleby30 13 лет назад

Perhaps propose inclusion as one of the language options in Google Translate?

I'm such a Tolkien nerd! I'm glad to know i'm not the only one who studies elvish. My friends just don't understand me

@TerinsDerio 15 лет назад

I love this! I'm practicing my pronounciations and this really helped. But for the sake of flow in the language, wouldn't one normally cut off one of the a's in "Isil néca amorta" so it said "Isil néc'amorta". Or is it in sindarin you would do that? Nevermind, great vid really enjoyed it!

@themanhimself3117 8 лет назад

I guess that Eru must be Tolkien. He created Arda.... Namarie (Farewell) Tolkien.

@viktorssoly8219 8 лет назад

Tolkien not Eru! Eru send Tolkien to Arda!

@lorenzoc.b.9809 8 лет назад

Tolkien didn't created Arda, he just found it.

@viktorssoly8219 8 лет назад

Lorenzo Carrera Maybe his whole life preparing for this. Everything was predetermined and it only had to write a paper about everything.

@lorenzoc.b.9809 8 лет назад

Viktors Soly Exactly! One example is The Hobbit: he wrote that book without knowing that it was inside his imaginary world. Just amazing

@viktorssoly8219 8 лет назад

Lorenzo Carrera Maybe Tolkien described himself as Bilbo Baggins? You led me to this idea! )))

Ufffff Que traduccion tan buena, se puede sentir el cantico Elfo Algo que nos hce sentir que quiza los elfos existieron. muy buen video. Namarie a tos los fans de LOTR.

@Isyeldar 15 лет назад

Its very amazing. The world is better for having such a song in it.

@inferidamus 14 лет назад

It's really good :-) (though it would've benefited from eliding some of the final vowels to make it sound less fast in certain places like "Art' i Eär Isil néc' amorta" for "Arta i Eär Isil néca amorta") Speaking of Quenya poetry why hasn't someone made a recording of the Markirya poem? (I would, but computer related things generally work against me.) I mean it's one of Tolkiens poems after all.

@DLAbaoaqu 14 лет назад

@Neo587 13 лет назад

Tolkien did a great job but unfortunately it is uncomplete because it was too long for one man. We should finish his work for him and in his memory... what a genius he was!

@ZemplinTemplar 12 лет назад

Great work. :-D I find it peculiar that Quenya lacks a term for gulls. Hm, maybe because it predates the longing of the elves to return to Undying Lands ? Who knows... :-P I'd love to hear a version in Sindarin too (partly because I like that one a bit better). .-)

@emergencyCALL911 15 лет назад

Yes, it is in Quenya that you do that. I think he did it when he sung it though.

@thiagodunadan 13 лет назад

@MagisterErik 15 лет назад

To be honest, I have always found Quenya easier accessible than Sindarin - Quenya is easier not only in its grammar but also in its pronounciation.

@ducksocks 15 лет назад

This is really, really, good. Where did you learn Quenya? I know there's lots of places with resources on Sindarin but Quenya's more difficult...

@seand.g423 5 лет назад

Remaster?

@Joonavainio 15 лет назад

No wonder, as Tolkien based Quenya on Finnish, Estonian's sister language. They have the same grammar and so many almost identical words they are almost mutually understandable. I don't consider them different languages but soewhat distant dialects of the same language that separated only 1000-2000 years ago or so. As for pronounciation, Estonian is a bit softer. Just FYI for others. As a fellow Finn you know this already.

Quenya cames from the Languages of the Wiking and Sindarin cames from the original Irish. I read J.R.R. Tolkins biography :).

@husky0098 Год назад

If I recall correctly the main inspiration for Quenya was Finnish and that of Sindarin was Welsh. Out of interest, what biography of Tolkien did you read?

@BioEhoes 12 лет назад

Świetnie zrobione. : ) Jestem strasznie ciekawy jak doszedłeś do tak dużej wprawy w posługiwaniu się Quenya. Czy uczyłeś się poprzez jakieś specjalne kursy?

@JoViljarHaugstulen 15 лет назад

i cant understand anything in elvish but i still think it sound beautiful

@Joonavainio 14 лет назад

Correct. My bad, was a bit too broadly defined. But Quenya is highly agglutinative just like Finnish. And agglutination is an integral part of grammar structure. Now, the words per se have nothing to do with Finnish, although they sound pretty much like it. Better now?

@christianfernandezcarrillo 14 лет назад

congrats on a great interpretation. : D

@Joonavainio 15 лет назад

And thanks to the singer and poster of this, Very beautifully sung, but with all due respect Uncle Talk himself reciting Quenya uses Finnish pronounciation rather than Estonian. Not that I didn't like the somewhat faster singsong flow of Estonian speech. Sharper, more ponderous Finnish is better for cursing, though, perrrkele ;) But of course Finnish varies too depending on local accent. Especially Karelians and Helsinki metropolitan area people speak at a pretty fast pace.

@anka8unicorn 11 лет назад

Its beautiful! Sooooo Beautiful.... :)

@xAxSxYxLxUxMx 13 лет назад

@nanarosemay Tengwar. And I've already learned the sindarin mode. It's pretty easy and simple to learn and it looks really pretty. Specially when written with a calligraphy pen ^.^

@TheDarkPan 15 лет назад

Concerning selracheu's comment: I think the acceptable (separate) possessive pronoun or adjective would be _ninya_. _Inya_ (= "female"!) is probably a lapse by mr. Derdzinski; the Fíriel's Song text from 1940 actually has _indo-ninya_ "my heart". Furthermore, one probably ought to pluralize it here, leaving _ninyë ranqui_.

@sylvanitoo 14 лет назад

@PKmattPK truly amazing song indeed, though in Sindarin it might be more challenging since Sindarin is less complete than Quenya, it might still be possible...and i would definitely love to hear it in Sindarin as well

@PKmattPK 14 лет назад

outstanding, any chance of a sindarin one as well?

@darthjarkal 14 лет назад

you are a good singer, man!! have you really translated the whole text?

@Joonavainio 15 лет назад

I might add that in the movies Quenya was pronounced a bit more Finnish-like with the characteristic sharper R and more open A and harder K. I always laughed when Aragorn said "Mordor". Like "WTF, the guy is speaking Finnish" :)

@Rafalskimi 15 лет назад

I think it is time for me to learn Elvish, both Quenya and Sindarin.

@RPtheTruth 14 лет назад

that was intense. i liked it. Lots. But the guys' voice bothered me; he kept going flat on the high notes and holding his rolled Rs instead of holding the vowel before them. I noticed a few language discrepancies, but still, that is pretty amazing.
