The Passing of the Elves

Snow White! Snow White! O Lady clear!O Queen beyond the Western Seas!O Light to us that wander thereAmid the world of woven trees!Gilthoniel! O Elbereth!Clear are thy eyes and bright is breath,Snow-white! Snow-white! We sing to theeIn a far land beyond the Sea!O Stars that in the Sunless YearWith shining hand by thee were sown,In windy fields now bright and clearWe see your silver blossom blown!O Elbereth Gilthoniel!We still remember, we who dwellIn this far land beneath the trees,Thy starlight on the Western Seas.
