sweeps the strand
reclaiming beached remnants
of cockles and shell shards; the sea

For Manic Monday’s Three-Way Prompt: Word: Dirge, Photo above, and the Song: Aniron by Enya. As I do every week, the poem inspired by these three are a Black Out poem taken from the translated lyrics of the song below:
|
O môr henion i dhû:
Ely siriar, êl síla
Ai! Aníron Undómiel
|
From darkness I understand the night:
dreams flow, a star shines
Ah! I desire Evenstar
|
|
Tiriel arad ‘ala môr
minnon i dhû-sad oltha
Ai! Aníron Edhelharn.
|
Having watched the day grow dark
I go into the night – a place to dream
Ah! I desire Elfstone.
|
|
Alae! Ir êl od elín!
I ‘lir uin el luitha guren.
Ai! Aníron Undómiel.
|
Behold! The star of stars!
The song of the star enchants my heart.
Ah! I desire Evenstar
|
|
I lacha en naur e-chun
Síla, éria, brónia.
Ai! Aníron Edhelharn.
|
The flame of the fire of the heart
shines, rises, endures.
Ah! I desire Elfstone
