The words are from a Pablo Neruda poem that I translated a while back. Don't have my translation in front of me at the moment, but I'll edit to add it when I get home from work this evening.
I've been told that the original form of Sarah is "Sarai", which means "princess" in Hebrew. However, Serai is not derived from that. It's the name of a character in a fic I never quite wrote, and it's Harad. (At least, that's what she told me.)
You are a dear - and the lovely name deserves a story. You know, it is very Tolkien for names to evoke meanings from themselves and their sounds. 'Serai' does that. Thank you for letting me suggest it!
