This is Sindarin, the Font is Tengwar (the Font the elves write in)
It means galwen nin mellon (= very nice, my friend)
From: drsquare
It is better if you don't use the carriers, and put the accents over the
succeding character, like this:
.dP' .dP"Yb
dP' dP' d'
`Yb d88b d88b `Y8888888b. `Y8888888b. `Yb d88b d88b
88P 88 8b .dP' .dP' 88P 8Y 8b
88 8P 88 ,dP ,dP 88 8P 88
88 .dP .dP 88 . 88 . .8P bdP bdP
.888888888888b. `Yb...dP `Yb...dP
`"""' `"""'
Of course, the word "mellon" is in Sindarin, and as on the West gate of
Moria, is written using the mode of Beleriand:
. .''': '. '':''''':'''' .''. .'''.'''.

: .''.' '.' '...' '...' '...' : : .'
From: Daniel Dr.Jekyll Jackel
But (for example) giulyr translated into Black Speech or into "English
Tengwar" looks a bit like galwen translated into Sindarin. (And like
this it is with nin and mellon also)
giulyr (black speech):
