im not gonna read the sneak peek because, idk, spoilers, but whatever pace your brain is comfortable going at is an ok pace, for me. take care of yourself, and the fic can happen when you are feeling better. im really excited about an update, but you have no obligation to post it any sooner than youre ready, or to update quickly, at all. youve blessed us with so much of your writing and gift and heart, i feel like it’s only fair for us to be compassionate in return. (thank you so much)

❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

thank you, Nonnie. I’m all right, like I said. I’m managing! I’m not in a downswing… I think, anyway. Just… it’s all just pencil-scribble sometimes, and it’s tiring. I get surges of motivation, and then I burn out. Perhaps I’ve taken on too much at work, it’s very busy rn… idk. Hard to describe. I don’t want to seem like I’m complaining tho! Compared to this time last year, I am A-OK!

I’m gonna keep chipping away at it when I have the energy, and I’m so thankful for the kindness you’re showing me. Thank you SO much. I hope you like it when it is done. *hugs*

Does Light on the Horizon have ukulele chords?? Because I really want to play it for a girl I have a crush on, but I can only play ukulele. Also, Sansukh is OMG AMAZING! I have read a chapter each night (sometimes even two, I know I’m such a rebel) for the past four weeks and it’s the best fanfic I have ever read, bar none.

OOOH welp, it does now! I just sat down and scribbled them out for you, Nonnie. Playing uke for a pretty girl is 110% the best reason ever to write out chords 🙂 Best of luck with it, and THANK YOU!

(rest of the lyrics, as well as the chords for the key change, under the cut!)


CHORDS – Light on the Horizon, from Sansukh

INTRO

Dm   Dm    F    F   C   C   Em   Em

 

VERSE

Dm                   Dm                 F         F

      Though my heart may be hea—-vy,

C                   C            Em                Em

      Though I wander afar,

Dm         Dm              F        F

      I will come to the mor—ning 

C             C                     Em             Em

      Over sea and under star.

 

CHORUS

Am                 F                     C     G

     Where you go there will I fo—llow,

Am             F                      C       G

     For you are my guiding star.

Am        F                  C        G

     I will never fear tomo—rrow.

Am             F                            C              G

     There is comfort where you are.

VERSE

Though the starlight is fading (I am lost in the dark),
Though the night gathers fast (take my hand).
There’s a new world awaiting (with you here by my side)
Lay your burden down at last (at last).

CHORUS

There’s a light on the horizon,
There’s a voice that calls my name,
There’s a place that I belong,
There’s an ever-burning flame.

VERSE

Far from hope and from home (far from all that I knew),
Full of sorrow and fear (meleth nîn),
You are never alone (ghivashelê I’m near, I am near)
I will always be here (I am here).

CHORUS

Out of dark to the day’s rising,
Death itself will I defy,
For the road goes ever on,
To your arms will I fly.

VERSE

I was worn, I was weary (annon ûr, nîn angin),
With suspicion and shame (Âzyungel),
Now I stand in the sunlight (now I stand in the light)
And my heart it calls your name (and my heart calls your name).

And the road takes me onward,
Takes me far from my door.
Never now will I falter,
Since you taught me how to soar.

CHORUS

I will wait for you forever,
I will be here when you call,
And if ever you should stumble,
I will catch you if you fall.

(Key change – Bm ostinato, 4 bars)

CHORUS

Bm                G                D             A

      There’s a light on the horizon,

Bm                G                    D           A

      There’s a ship upon the sea,

Bm                G                        D           A 

      Now the world is so much wider,

Bm             G                     D           A

      For you wander it with me.

 

CHORUS (as above, Bminor)

And the sun shines out the clearer,
Golden glory in the blue!
There’s a light on the horizon,
And it’s guiding me to you.

 

CODA

Bm             G              D            A

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh  (repeat x 4)

I have been working up the courage and trying to find the right words to properly describe what you and Sansukh have grown to mean to me and I have totally failed in finding words beautiful and fitting enough for you and this amazing work. I have been staying up to ridiculous hours in the morning reading this beautiful piece of art. I can’t tell you how much it has meant to my life. I used to be ashamed that I was in fandoms but now I’m practically bursting with pride at my nerdiness. Thank you

*hugs very tight*

Nonnie, it has been my honour and my pleasure. And thank YOU for being a part of it all, and sharing your generosity and joy and enthusiasm with me. I’m proud, too. *hugs again*
