Alright,
So on Ardalambion there is a word "vanimalda" and a word "Vanimelde" with the two dots over it's last e (at a loss for the formal term at the moment) which mean "your beautiful/beautiful one" and a feminine name meaning "Beautiful-Dear-One", respectively.
Also, assuming that maybe there are alternate spellings of the phrase (due to revisions and what not), I found "Arwen vanimalda" which was stated to mean beautiful Arwen.
So the phrase probably means "Beautiful Arwen, fairwell."
And I'm outie -
