LotR soundtrack lyrics?

[karohemd]

Anyone out there who could point me to the lyrics of what the choir are singing?
It's usually in sequences with either Nazgul, Orcs or other Mordor/Sauron things, so I assume it's Black Speech (or just random babble ;o).

Give me a bit. I have the Limitid Edition Sound Track and the lyrics are printed on that, however, it's in house monkeys room and he's still asleap. I'll get it at half one, that ok?

The CD sleeve only contains the lyrics for the Enya songs (Aniron, Lament for Gandalf, May it be, etc.)

Yeah, just realised that, sorry.

I had thought that they were done in Latin. Then again, I wasn't paying close attention, except to how it made excellent background music, and how I had to get the soundtrack for myself. ;)

Sounded like Latin to me too.

I think I read somewhere that they did them in dwarvish and the appropriate languages. can't remember where, though...

I don't know what the lyrics are; but to me, it sounded very much like a pre-existing bit of Orff's Carmina Burana. I'd have to listen again to be sure, though.
