Snow-white!
Snow-white!
O lady clear!
O Queen beyond the Western Sea!
O Light to us that wander
Amid the world of woven trees!
Gilthoniel!
O Elbereth!
Clear are thy eyes and bright thy breath.
Snow-white!
Snow-white!
We sing to
In a far land beyond the Sea.
O stars that in the Sunless
With shining hand by her were sown,
In windy fields now bright and
We see your silver blossom blown.
O Elbereth!
Gilthoniel!
We still remember, we who
In this far land beneath the trees,
Thy starlight on the Western Seas.
A Elbereth Gilthoniel,
Silivren penna mirielO menal aglar elenath!
Na-chaered palan-dirielO galadhremmin ennorath,
Fanuilos, le linnathonnef aear, si nef aearon!
Ai! laurie lantar lassi surinen!
Yeni unotime ve ramar aldaron,
Yeni ve linte yuldar
Mi oromardi
Andune pella Vardo
Nu luini yassen tintilar i
Omaryo airetari-lirinen.
Si man i yulma nin enquantuva?
An si Tintalle Varda
Ve fanyar maryat Elentari ortane,
Ar ilye tier undulare lumbule;
Ar sindanoriello caita mornieI falmalinnar imbe met, ar
Untupa Calaciryo miri oiale.
Si vanwa na,
Romello vanwa,
Valimar!
Namarie!
Nai hiruvalye Valimar.
Nai elye hiruva.
Namarie!
Ah!
Like gold fall the leaves in the wind,
Long years numberless as the wings of trees!
The long years have passed like swift draughts of the sweet
In lofty halls beyond the
Beneath the blue vaults of
Wherein the stars tremble in the song of her voice,
Holy and queenly.
Who now shall refill the cup for me?
For now the Kindler,
Varda,
The Queen of the Stars, from Mount
Has uplifted her hands like clouds,
And all paths are drowned deep in shadow;
And out of a grey country darkness lies on the foaming waves between us,
And mist covers the jewels of Calacirya for ever.
Now lost, lost to those from the East is Valimar!
Farewell!
Maybe thou shalt find Valimar.
Maybe even thou shalt find it!
Farewell!
Gilthoniel A Elbereth!
A Elbereth GilthonielO menel palan-diriel,
Le nallon si dinguruthos!
A tiro nin,
Fanuilos!
A!
Elbereth Gilthoniel!
Silivren penna mirielO menal aglar elenath,
Gilthoniel,
A!
Elbereth!
We still remember, we who
In this far land beneath the
Thy starlight on the Western Seas.
