Earendil firin


hehtana calo cuileo úna
i fána cirya quildenen lutta
nún i ambonnar ñillínen hríza


yé! yúyal yerya víne vanwa
sí, melissenya, allintie auta
a nore lisse fandos' indemma


Earendil firin; aure auvane
tehta rambasse, ninya, na márie
vamme apsene vamme apsene

Earendil's Dead

abandoned by light deprived of life
the white ship floats in the silence
it's snowing with silver glints down on the hills

lo! the twilight is feading, youth is gone
my beloved, you'd rather go now
run, sweet daydream

Earendil's dead; the day is ugly
a writing on the wall, farewell, my dear
we will not forgive, will not forgive
