Strange thought

Listening to Metallica while doing some writing, I realized that I wanted the lyrics to The Unforgiven in Elvish calligraphy.

Don't ask, I don't understand it myself. But it would be cool.

Surely someone has come up with a font for that. It would be cool to print it out on parchment and frame it!

Fonts R Us

Do you mean a font-dependent letter-by-letter translation to Quenya script, or an English rendering in an Elvish-inspired font?

I have the font, let me get back up to my place (I'm at the 'rents) and I'll write it up for you.
It'll be the English as written in Quenya font. Translating to the Elvish is a bit beyond me (but maybe not Blade. Hm...)

I've been cranky that the formal Unicode proposal for Tengwar specification hasn't gone through. And I really need to find the font. It's so pretty. Definitely tiny fangirl.
