Transcript with Literal Translation and Notes

Mierin: "It's a beautiful song."; An'am dena.; (It is a) song of beauty

Mierin: "You're from here, aren't you?"; Weladthi kodome?; (your) family (is from) here?

In this sentence we see that "your", "is", and "from" are all omitted and implied. Weladthi is sometimes used to mean home, but it seems to carry the connotations of where family is rather than a specific dwelling or place.

Charn: "Yes, Aes Sedai. My family still farms these fields. They are bringing in the harvest now."; Taak, Aes Sedai.; Weladthi vlagh'sor, hlin vlagha.; Yes, Aes Sedai.; (my) family field-work, (they are) harvesting (the) fields (now).

Vlagh'sor seems to mean "farm" here. Hlin, a word which is recorded as meaning "those who harvest", seems to also behave something like a participle here. Vlaghan is used as a plural of vlagh in Coming Home, but here it is heard without the terminating "n". It is possible that either the "n" is hard to hear, or that this is simply a variant plural.

Mierin: "You should go visit them."; Jala'ti sein.; Go to them.

Here, jalou is compressed to just jala, though it is possible that if written it would still be written as jalou'ti. "You should visit" is left implied.

Charn: "Today's too important for you, isn't it? I can go tomorrow."; Ji'akai, ca'matuet aha; Jalanu welakai.; Today, (it is) too important (for) you,; (I) can go tomorrow.

The most notable thing here is that Charn pronounces asa as "aha". This could be either a particular accent, a mistake either in listening to the audio or in saying the line, or it could represent an alternative form. The future tense here is used to indicate potentiality; "I can" is implied.

Mierin: "Tomorrow? Tomorrow everything will be different."; Welakai?; Welakai aes gadou!; Tomorrow?; Tomorrow all changes!

Charn: "I know it's not my place to ask... But what is it? That you've found?"; Ah, choshih'ath, gavane? Nane asa jaevae?; Ah, (it isn't my place) (but), what? Was (it) you found?"

Mierin: "The thinnest part of the pattern. A place I think we can punch through... and find what's on the other side."

Fonnai tamara'simp. Mozhlit ortu, jaendar logae.

A place (where the) pattern-thins. Possibly (we can) open (it), (and) find the awaited (thing on the other side).

Charn: "And what's there?"

Logae gavane?

What is awaited (on the other side)?

Mierin: "A power... that can be used by men or women... The true power. It will change everything. Can you imagine? Something anyone, anywhere can use. Not just Lews Therin and the Aes Sedai. Even you, your family."

Walden.

Walden aes sedonae.

Saihit.

Power

A power all serving.

Sai'hit

Aes gadou.

Mozhlit gortista aes atha'an.

asa, ninte weladthi,

tarim bolar Lews Therin Aes Sedai.

Not only special channelers,

you, your family,

not only special (channelers like) Lews Therin Aes Sedai.

Mierin: "They wouldn't have to bring in the harvest by hand."

Spiat hlan. Tarim pi'hlan vid sovin'sor.

(It could) help harvest. Not only harvest with hand-work.

Charn: "Yes, but... it feels good to. I can't explain it. To feel the wheat you grew in your hands... The soil you tilled beneath your feet... It feels good."

Taak, no, hlan uiwa kutyalot vid sovin.

Manu kutya kazka sovin'sa. Feros muad basho so soreat.

Kutyalot uiwa hlan.

Yes, but, harvesting feels good with hands.

(I) think (the) feeling of grain in hands... Worked soil under (your) feet...

(It) feels good (to) harvest).

Mierin: "Go. See your family. Sing your song."

Jalou.

Heatsu ninte weladthi.

Denu perant.

Go.

Rejoin your family.

Sing together.

Denu is the future tense of dena, used as a suggestion for what he should go do.

Charn: "Are you sure?"

Dai nosane?

Speak (in) conflict?

Evidently, to say "are you sure", one idiomatic construction is "speak conflict?" or "speak in conflict (with what you just said)?, asking if she wishes to speak against what she just said.

Mierin: "There's nothing more important than holding on to the people you love."

Duente ninte atha'ohlan ca'matuet sul sein.

(It is) so important to hold (a) grip (on) them, your loved ones.

Logae — Pronunciation: Mierin pronounces this "lo-zhay." Charn repeats it as "lo-guy-eh."

Aha: Charn pronounces asa (you) as "aha" — a completely different phoneme.

Gortista: Likely a variant of gorista (use). "Mozhlit gortista aes atha'an" — "possible to use by all people."

Tarim: Appears twice in parallel constructions where "not just" or "not only" fits.
