Elven Hymns to Elbereth Gilthoniel

"Snow-white! Snow-white! O Lady clear!

O Queen beyond the Western Seas!

O Light to us that wander here

Amid the world of woven trees!

Gilthoniel! O Elbereth!

Clear are thy eyes and bright thy breath!

Snow-white! Snow-white! We sing to thee

In a far land beyond the Sea.

O stars that in the Sunless Year

With shining hand by her were sown,

In windy fields, now bright and clear

We see your silver blossom blown!

O Elbereth! Gilthoniel!

We will remember, we who dwell

In this far land beneath the trees,

Thy starlight on the Western Seas."
