THE RETREAT FROM OSGILIATH
text by PHILIPPA BOYENS, translation by DAVID SALO
( SINDARIN )
Revail vyrn dan minuial
U galad, u vin anor hen
Cano an dregad.
U natha ored
Gwanwen ost in giliath
Dannen Osgiliath
(( Black wings against a pale morning
There is no more light, not in this sun
Call the retreat.
There will be no warning.
The citadel of the stars is gone
Osgiliath is fallen. ))

THE WHITE RIDER
text by PHILIPPA BOYENS, translation by DAVID SALO
( SINDARIN )
Mennen nored din
Gwanen i'ur ban
Silant calad Dun
Tollen Rochon 'Lan
(( Their race was over;
All courage gone.
A light shone in the West -
The White Rider had come. ))
