====== Doors of Durin inscription ======
The Doors of Durin were built in western part of Moria by the dwarf Narvi. Elf Celebrimbor made the magical riddle inscription.
Sindarin text:
> Ennyn Durin Aran Moria. Pedo Mellon a Minno. Im Narvi hain echant. Celebrimbor o Eregion teithant i thiw hin.
Gandalf's translation:
> The Doors of Durin, Lord of Moria. Speak, friend, and enter. I, Narvi, made them. Celebrimbor of Hollin drew these signs.
===== Nûrlâm translation =====
Name of Durin was transliterated as is, Narvi became "Narbhi", while Moria was translated as "Black Pit", Celebrimbor as "Silver fist" and Hollin as "Holly-Tree Land". The word for "draw" was absent in all Neo Black Speech dictionaries, (however, "inscribe" could be used).
> Za hûm Durinob, mâgz Ronkbûrzob. Gashn shauk agh shisk. Da, Narbhi, krampuzul. Ibirkrark Irkornuzgob togduzâ za tan.
