Evenstar

I am posting a lot of music. Music I like. Evenstar is one of those classics. The immortal love of Aragon and Arwen if so beautifully expressed in just one verse of pure poetry. I tried learning Elvish, but I didn't have the discipline. With my first salary in Bangalore, I bought the extended DVD version of the LOTR. I've spent entire days watching the movie over and over again. Each of the three parts of the movie runs four hours long.

My ex-husband made me listen to Evenstar before we married. He owned the extended DVD set. It was more out of vengeance than anything else that I bought the LOTR box set. But, I managed to form a bond with the beautiful storyline and especially Aragon and Arwen's painful love story.

Evenstar means other things to me today than it did three years ago. It means poetry. Just pure poetry. Nothing more. Nothing less.





This is what it means...

This is not the end...

nâ i onnad.
It is the beginning.

Si boe ú-dhannathach
You cannot falter now

Ae ú-esteliach nad —
If you trust nothing else

Estelio han —
Trust this —

estelio veleth.
Trust love.
