Mods, feel free to delete this if it's too OT.

I'm preparing to embark on a glass-painting project that will (hopefully) someday become a glass plate with the emblem of the Feanorians on it - it looks wonderful in my head, but goodness only knows how it will turn out. (For the record, I'm using this as my reference image, since it's the prettiest-looking Feanorian sigil I've found so far, and I like the warm colours, as opposed to other versions I've seen that seem to have too much blue for my taste).


Feanor heraldry by ~Morsing on deviantART

I want to add some Quenya around the border. Being a Noldorin fan, I have dabbled a bit in Quenya, so I translated a few phrases myself, but I'm not sure of their correctness. If there's anyone who's had more practice, can I possibly get some input?




Nanye i tanna Feanáro Cundu Noldoron
Yondo Finwëo venno Nerdanello ar atar yondoron
Lierya laitar tanweryar


I am the sign of Feanáro, Prince of the Noldor,
Son of Finwe, husband of Nerdanel and father of sons.
His people praise his works.

I'm not so sure about the "prince" bit, because the actual word for that is a bit hazy, but it's the best I can think up right now. I'd hate to finish my project and then find I did it wrong!
