I don't suppose any of my Tolksoc member friends happen to know of an English translation of the lyrics of Finrod's Song by Temple?

I saw it linked by [livejournal.com profile] hhimring, and I really like it*, slightly dodgy 2001 special effects, and dubious sound notwithstanding, but my Russian is non-existent (although this does mean I can make it seem more authentic by pretending they are all singing in Quenya).

It occurred to me that, in the vein of [livejournal.com profile] sally_maria's icon where the Tolkien society has no sleep and needs no sleep,  if such a translation exists and is out there somewhere, they probably know about it.  :-D

*My Feanorian roleplaying character disapproves of it, although I think even he is a bit amused by the portrayal of sulky enormous Thingol in his flowery wreath.

OK, I had just slapped it into a private LJ post to look at later, but I just made it flocked instead : http://bunn.livejournal.com/500149.html

I agree, you can often get a long way with Google translate if you are prepared to think around it. I expect you'll it more easily than me since you have more of the language.
