Our Father - Rivendell style


Dwarves never learnt to say the Lord's Prayer
- in Quenya or Latin

Paul Priest at OTSOTA recently featured a video clip of the Our Father in Elvish (or, Quenya) and that inspired me to look up the actual words, here they are:-



Átaremma i ëa han ëa ∙



na aire esselya ∙




aranielya na tuluva ∙




na care indómelya




cemende tambe Erumande :




ámen anta síra ilaurëa massamma ∙




ar ámen apsene úcaremmar




sív’ emme apsenet tien i úcarer emmen.




Álame tulya úsahtíenna




mal áme etelehta ulcullo : násie : 



I think that I might stick with Latinish!

    Truly, the Mass should be in Latin, part of the Catholic unity of all cultures. Y'all.
