Elen síla lúmenn' omentielvo
From Tolkien Gateway
Elen síla lúmenn’ omentielvo is a Quenya greeting used by Frodo when in the first meeting with Gildor Inglorion. It translates as "A star shines on the hour of our meeting".[1]
Without the vocal assimilation it would be Elen síla lúmenna omentielvo, which Tolkien also translates as "A star shines upon the hour of the meeting of our ways".[2]
