Music: Enya
Lyrics: Roma Ryan
May It Be
May it be an evening star
Shines down upon you
May it be when darkness falls
Your heart will be true
You walk a lonely road
Oh! How far you are from home

MorniÎ ut™liÎ (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
MorniÎ alantiÎ (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now

May it be the shadow's call
Will fly away
May it be your journey on
To light the day
When the night is overcome
You may rise to find the sun

MorniÎ ut™liÎ (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
MorniÎ alantiÎ (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now

A promise lives within you now


Roma Ryan's notes to the song, taken from Only Time-The Collection:
Written for the Peter Jackson film epic of Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings: the Fellowship of the Ring" the song "May it be" is written in both English and the Elvish language, Quenya.
Quenya means "speech" and was known as the "Forbidden language" or "the language of the kinslayers". It was a language used primarly in ancient song and ceremony and in the language of lore. "May it be" or "Nai" in Quenya, is usually used by the Elves to express a wish.
