I have attempted an, at best, crude interpretation of:
"Manwë keep you under the One"
into Quenya, as:
Manwë mando ilyë nu Ilúvatar.
Can anyone offer suggestions / guidance / reference as to a more accurate one, please?

One way to say this in Quenya would be:
Nai Manwë varuval nu Ilúvatar.
Literally, this means "May it be that Manwë will protect you under Iluvatar."
"varya-" is "protect", with a future ending of -uva, and the last letter -l meaning "you". Hope this helps!

Well, I've settled on the following interpretation:
Nai Manwë varyauvallë nu i Eru
Thanks, Joe: She is a very pleasant and helpful person and definitely knows her Elvish! :)
