nirix5I really hope that I don't have to go into work tomorrow. Work being the bakery, actually, where I haven't worked since January or whenever. But Mom is still sick and Mike is being a schmuck again and not showing up. Whatever.
But I reeeeeeeeealllly don't want to. *pouts* I have to set my alarm for four anyway, just in case, cause I don't hear the phone up in the garret unless I'm listening for it. (Elven hearing, my ass. Elven SELECTIVE hearing, more like it :D)
Anyway. Here's some wonderful Numenorean lamentation for you.
Kadô Zigûrun zabathân unakkha...
Êruhînim dubdam Ugru-dalad...
Ar-Pharazônun azaggara Avalôiyada...
Bârim an-Adûn yurahtam dâira sâibêth-mâ Êruvô
azrîya du-phursâ akhâsada
Anadûnê zîrân hikallaba...
bawîba dulgî...
balîk hazad an-Nimruzîr azûlada...
Agannâlô burôda nênud...
zâira nênud...
adûn izindi batân tâidô ayadda: îdô kâtha batîna lôkhî...
Êphalak îdôn Yôzâyan
Êphal êphalak îdôn hi-Akallabêth
Seemingly humbled the Dark Wizard came
Drawing the Children of Eru under his shadow
Ar-Pharazôn brought war against the Valar
And the Lords of the West broke the Earth with the assent of Eru.
The seas crashed and rushed into the chasm
And Númenor the beloved was struck down
The winds of the angry skies blew black
As Elendil and his seven ships sailed eastward…
The Death-shadow is heavy on us
And we long for that which was lost
Westward roads, once straight, are now crooked
Far away now is the Land of Gift
Far away now is She-that-hath-fallen…
I think that's the prettiest thing in the world right now. Tomorrow, who knows. I've been singing it all day and part of last night. When sung to "Voices" from Macross Plus it really kind of works. It's also really awkward to speak, but kind of rolls off the tongue when sung.
Okay, okay, I'll stop.
Nyah, Nyah, I'm on a search for new icons again.
*tries not to look obvious* Anyone want to make me one?
On an entirely different note, this song is flippin' funny. Yeah.
