"Aníron" is a song in The Lord of the Rings film trilogy soundtrack. It is the theme for Aragorn (known later as Elessar) and Arwen Evenstar. Aníron means 'I desire' in the constructed Elvish language of Sindarin. It is featured as part of the track "The Council of Elrond" on the soundtrack album The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. This song does not appear in Tolkien's writings; it was composed and sung by Enya, the lyrics were written by Roma Ryan.[1] The song was conducted by Howard Shore, and performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra with Enya.
In November 2009 Enya released the album The Very Best of Enya. None of the songs on this recording is new but the version of Aníron has alternate lyrics from the one heard in the movie or on any movie score recording.
