More on Roma Ryan
Description from Wikipedia:
Roma Shane Ryan (born in Belfast, Northern Ireland) is a writer, poetess, and lyricist, currently living in Artane, Ireland, with her husband Nicky.
Ryan is the primary lyricist for the singer Enya, who has stated that the importance of Roma's and Nicky's contributions are such that without them, "Enya" would not exist.
Ryan's lyrics for Enya have won Grammy awards; the song "May It Be" for the The Lord of the Rings film The Fellowship of the Ring was nominated for an Oscar.
Her lyrics can be heard in films such as The Frog Prince (1984), Green Card (1990), L.A. Story (1991), Toys (1992), Cry, the Beloved Country (1995), and Reisei to jônetsu no aida (2001), all of which feature Enya's music.
In 2005, Ryan created a new language known as Loxian, inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien's Elvish language, for Enya's album Amarantine. She wrote a book describing Loxian, called Water Shows the Hidden Heart.
Roma and Nicky have two daughters, Ebony and Persia, who also contributed artwork and layout to Amarantine.
