The King

Lim-strang wæs geborenBearn léod-cyningaMagorinc Mearces.Bunden in byrde tó lædenneBunden in lufe tó thegnungeLang beadugear cyythathLic onginneth búgan.Swift déadlic géar Stieppath geond willan.Ac éagan gíet lóciath Beorhtre gesihthe;Heorte gíet béateth.

The King

Strong-limbed he was bornThis son of Kings;This warrior of Rohan.Bound by birth to lead.Bound by love to serve.Long years of war begin to show.The body has begun to bend.Swift mortal years outpace the will.But the eyes still watch clear-sighted.The great heart is beating still.
