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
Mornie utulie
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie
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
Mornie utulie (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now
A promise lives within you now
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
Mornie utulie
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie
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
Mornie utulie (darkness has come)
Believe and you will find your way
Mornie alantie (darkness has fallen)
A promise lives within you now
A promise lives within you now

Okay im sorry, but if one more christian starts doing a god and harsh times of the christian path comparison i am going to hurl. I am a huge enya fan and I'm sorry but there are so many different ways to praise the song without bringing religion into it. No offense to the Christian religion though.
@derek808 Tolkien was an ardent Catholic. The Lord of the Rings is not explicitly allegorical - Tolkien even said he had a disdain for allegory - but the Catholic/Christian worldview is most definitely at play within the Lord of the Rings. Of course you can enjoy this tune for its aesthetic beauty - but, to give credit where credit is due, the story from which this tune derives its inspiration is one suffused by the Christian worldview.
@derek808 Please don't hurl. Only a few posts were from a Christian perspective. They certainly have the right to express their feelings from their hearts on any subject, as do all people who have posted on such a lovely and beautiful song. Peace be with you...
