Can anyone tell me if this is correct? Also, I need the words for Believe and for Promise. One more thing, does anyone know where I could get the sheet music for this and Aníron?

May it be an evening star (Nai a elsinye)
Shines down upon you (siila und no lyë)
May it be when darkness falls (Nai tárë mornië lantane)
Your heart will be true (lyaa indo anwatuva)
You walk a lonely road (Lyë vanta eressea malle)
Oh! How far you are from home. (Ai! vahaiya lyë e mar)

Mornië Utùlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way (Believe ar lyë hirtuva lyaa wand)
Mornië Alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now (promise lives mi lyë sin)

May it be shadows call (Nai lumbe yello)
Will fly away (willetuva vanya)
May it be your journey on (Nai lyaa mesta or)
To light the day (an kalya i aure)
When the night is overcome (Tárë i loome is overcome)
You may rise to find the sun (Lyë nai orta hir i Anar)

Mornië Utùlië (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way (Believe ar lyë hirtuva lyaa wand)
Mornië Alantië (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now (promise kuilië mi lyë sin)

A promise lives within you now (promise kuilië mi lyë sin)

I think he almost perfect, but:

May it be the shadows call,
Will fly away,
May it be your journey all

I don't know if the Aniron words are good, cuz I'm not good at that.

Veritas, I translated it according to what was writen on my insert. Though I don't think that the word "the" would change that much of the translation. Though it would make more since in English to say
May it be the shadows call,
Will fly away. smilies/wink.gif
