Sin'dorei,
Shindu fallah na.
Sin'dorei,
Anar'alah,
Shindu sin'dorei,
Shindu fallah na.
Sin'dorei,
Shindu sin'dorei,
Shindu fallah na.
Sin'dorei,
Anar'alah belore,
Belore.
The lyrics in Lament of the Highborne are in the language of the blood elves, a fictional race in the World of Warcraft game. The overall theme of the song is mourning the loss of their queen, who sacrificed herself to save them from a great danger. The first line, "Anar'alah, anar'alah belore" translates to "By the light, by the light of the sun." This is a reference to their culture and belief system, where they worship the Sunwell, a source of magical energy that they draw power from.
The following lines, "Sin'dorei, Shindu fallah na" can be interpreted as "we are the blood elves, our sun has set." This is a metaphor for the loss of their queen and the fallout that follows. The repeated lines "Sin'dorei, Anar'alah, Shindu sin'dorei, Shindu fallah na" emphasize the blood elves' identity as a people, their connection to their beliefs, and their current state of mourning.
The song's use of the elven language, combined with the melancholy melody and haunting vocals, create a powerful emotional impact. It serves as a reminder of the importance of culture and tradition, and the impact that loss can have on a people.

Ich erinner mich immer wieder gerne am Anfang von Bc als das Lied durch ganz Undercity gehallt ist und alle Spieler still standen und der Musik gelauscht haben aus Respekt vor dem tragischen und sehr traurigem Schicksal von Sylvanas Windrunner. vor Sylvanas respektvoll salutiert als Allianzler

All dies hat sie nun nicht mehr nötig seit Teldrassils Schicksal...

Er hat Opern nicht beleidigt, er hat lediglich seine Meinung geäussert. Das ist sein gutes Recht.
