This is the final song in the movie 'Gladiator' entitled 'Now We Are Free'. I have been unable to find a translation of the lyrics anywhere.
Is there anyone who can identify what language this is and give me a translation?
Anol shalom
Anol sheh lay konnud de ne um {shaddai}

Ham de nam um das

Flavne…

this isn't a real language.
i did a search for the lyrics on google, and found this:
Taken from an interview with Lisa Gerrard about the song:
"...The rest of the vocals, sung with sounds rather than in a
conventional language, are an example of melismatic singing. "It's a language invented within the music, inherently, and the words mean more than I can say in English", she says. "The way I sing is not new; it's been around since the beginning of time, and it's something all children are born with. It's not unique to me, but for some reason I never lost the ability".

Many words from many languages, as it is said above, this obviously isn't a language (or the song consists of random words and is meaningless), it can't be jew just because it says 'shalom' in first line, there also are words that look like english, latin and maybe french.

Sorry that I can't help too much with this, except to say that Advisor is wrong. It is definitely NOT Romanian, although it could be Romany, the language of the Roma & Sinti (Gypsys).

in or around the aramaic languages in middle east.the shaddai and shalom are aramaic terms and it is one of the title of GOD -God who is more than enough-el shaddai and shalom means PEACE!i am not sure of the language of the whole song but i notice the two words,it is aramaic in origin.

The language I beleive is Romanian. However, there are no good translators that I can find for this language.
