Leithio, leithio
A eriathon sui i-aur vreithol
Adlego, adlego,

AN: This is what happens when you discover both infinitives leithia- and adlegi- (to loose, to let loose, to release from bondage) sound a whole hell of a lot like 'let it go' in their imperative forms leithio and adlego. Here are the second and third choruses. You're welcome, internet.
Literal English translation:
Let it go, let it go!
I am free as the wind and the sky
Let it go, let it go!
You will not see my weeping!
Here I set myself, alone I will stay
Come, storm!
Your cold doesn't trouble me.
...
Let it go, let it go
And I'll rise like the breaking day
Let it go, let it go
The silent child now is singing. [there's no good way to translate 'that perfect girl is gone']
Here I stand alone under the bright sun
Come, storm!
Your cold doesn't trouble me.
...
Even more literal translation:
Let [it] go, let [it] go!
I-am free as the-wind and the-sky
Let [it] go, let [it] go!
Not-see-will-you the-weeping mine!
Here set-I myself, and stay-will-I
Come, storm!
The-cold yours not-bothers me.
...
Let [it] go, let [it] go!
And rise-will-I like the-daylight breaking
Let [it] go, let [it] go!
the-child silent now [is] singing.
Here stand-I under-the sun bright
Come, storm!
The-cold yours not-bothers me.
...
