Christmas Song(s) nìNa’vi on YouTube

[Plumps]

Ma oeyä eylan,

As I hinted at in the news about duration of time, AP Nova, Talis and I were working on a translation of Christmas songs. Here is one of them (FYI, not put on YouTube by us but via a third, well fourth party who wants to stay uncredited for now)

Tewti ma utral - O Tannenbaum

Spoiler: lyrics

Tewti ma utral, tewti ma utral,
ngeyä ayrìk leiu lor!
nga krrmì tsawkeyä tsawl slu
sì fìkrrmì a vawm leru
Tewti ma utral, tewti ma utral,
ngeyä ayrìk leiu lor.
 
Tewti ma utral, tewti ma utral,
oel kameie ngati!
frazìsìt oeru sunu nga,
a zera'eiu Eywata!
Tewti ma utral, tewti ma utral,
oel kameie ngati!

Tewti ma utral, tewti ma utral,
ngal keiar oeru futa
meoauniaeal
frakrr awngati fmereial
Tewti ma utral, tewti ma utral,
ngal keiar oeru fì'ut.

Sung by our ever talented Talis (give him some credit ) – the drums were added by the fourth party.

Text at the end says: '2010 was the year of the Na'vi! With this in mind: Feliz Na'vidad – Merry Christmas! With the friendly assistance of Learnnavi.org'

The lyrics are Frommer proved. Which means that the ellision of ma utral to sound like mawtral is correct.


Nìsung:

And here is another one Hope you enjoy:

Txon amawey - Stille Nacht

Spoiler: lyrics

txon amawey, txon a'eoio
fratseng lu atan, fnu frapo
nìmwey 'evit sì sa'nokit nìn
'evit a lu 'ewan sì sevin
hivahaw nìmwey mì ton
hivahaw nìmwey mì ton
 
txon amawey, txon a'eoio
tìyawnä atanit Eywal terìng
nawma sa'nok tìhawnu sivi
awngeyä tìreyur kifkeyursì
hivahaw nìmwey mì ton
hivahaw nìmwey mì ton

I think, this time the background music is better than the first. Again, lyrics approved by Karyu Pawl

Tìsung asyen:
Thanks to Markì, the original versions can be downloaded H E R E

And there's a treat for you A song that was not used on YouTube, it's called "Maria went to the forest of thorns", Maria kxamlä na'rìng kä in the Na'vi version, this one is a total blend of Terran and Pandoran ideas, names are kept, Eywa added Here are the

Spoiler: lyrics

Maria kxamlä na'rìng kä, Eywa tìhawnu sivi!
Maria kxamlä na'rìng kä a ayzìsìto kea ayrìk tsar ke lalmu
Yeysu sì Maria!
 
Peul tok peyä txe'lanit, Eywa tìhawnu sivi!
Hì'ia 'evil tìsrawluke terok txe'lanit Mariayä
Yeysu sì Maria!
 
Ayutralur lu frrnesyul, Eywa tìhawnu sivi!
Ayutralur lu frrnesyul tengkrr zamerunge 'evit na'rìngmì
Yeysu sì Maria

EPIC I know this song in several languages and I have to say, this is my favorite. Thanks for sharing and Feliz Na'vidad (hrh)

[Ekirä]

That. Is. Awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Needs to go in the news ticker, IMO.

[Eyamsiyu]

This is quite awesome!!!

Hmm... I need to memorize this version so I can sing this and bug my parents XD

[Sireayä mokri]

Txantsana tìkangkemvi nìngay!

[Elfenlied]

Very nice.

[Ftiafpi]

Txantsan! Unexpected and wonderful. I loved hearing this and the lyrics are quite wonderful and easily memorable. Something tells me I'm going to be humming this later today.

[Kamean]

Splendid work! Really awesome!
Karma for you.

[Seykxetskxe te Vawm 'Ewan'ite (Kalin Kato)]

Txantsan! I like it, have to learn it

[Talis]

I don't like the drums and the music in the background, they sound weird...

but that seems just to be my opinion

I think they sound very good... :3 niNa'vi.

[Talis]

But the sound of the music and the voice don't fit, do they?
the drums are killing the softness of the song :/ of course it's a nice idea concerning the na'vi but... well I don't know...
maybe it's just because I just know the "softer version" where there is just the voice without drums...

[eanayo]

This is definitely one of the more awesome things I've seen today.

Many thanks to the creators of this, cookies all around!

[...] working on a translation of Christmas songs.

But I love this variant. With drums. Because it sounds Na'vily.

[Talis]

ok, then it's just me

nice to hear that someone likes it

[Le'eylan]

WOU Fìtìrol lu txantsan!!! 

[Nìwotxkrr Tìyawn]

The horrifying thought of trying to decorate kelutral comes to mind.

[Eyamsiyu]

The horrifying thought of trying to decorate kelutral comes to mind.

That would be quite the creative use of an ikran.  Maybe they would train ikranvi to do the job.

EDIT: Fixed "Forest Banshee" according to Ekirä's reasoning.

[Ekirä]

AFAIK it isn't Frommer approved. I think ikranvi would be better.
