Gondolin of the Seven Gates
Dear Ulmo weeps for sweet Gondolin
Hidden City of the Precious Noldoli
Turgon, hail the king, gone
Ecthelion and Glorfindel beloved Captains slain
Bring the fire, see the smoke, bring the axe dodge the splinters
Walk the path, no resistance
Down be the Wooden Gate. First Gate of the City of Stone.
Seven gates hewed down in sorrow
Hurt of betrayal not even seven ages shall cure
Maeglin, son of the dark elf, black his heart
Doom he brought, hurt he widens
Bring the hammers, move the boulders, bring the shields
Kill the archers clad in gray
Down be Gate of Stone. Second Gate the City of Dwellers in Stoner..
Words of Mandos they ignore
Hunt them down, find them
Haunt the gates of Gondolin destroyed
Mandos has brought his shadow upon them
Dent the gates, leap them over, shed the blood o'er red rimmed axes
Strike the fighters of the fire red mail
Down be the Gate of Bronze. Third Gate of the Stone of Song.
Idril sweet rightful foreboding
Sear the stone, build the tunnel
Shut the door, keep it secret
For mark her words, t'is salvation
Charge the gates. Bring the ram. Through the gate for Fight you must.
Defeat the warriors in black.
Down be the Gate of Writhen Iron. Fourth Gate of the Tower of Guard.
Thralls of Morgoth, spill thy blood
Deliver the Eldar to the Halls of Mandos
Ravage the fair city of the sweet flower
It's great fall by your hands
Break the marble, dent the silver. Strike fighters silver, helms of white.
Down the archers white.
Down be the Gate of Silver. Fifth Gate of the Secret Place
Weep for the Balrog slayer
Sing for the Beloved brought home by Eagles
Beauty torn and charred, broken, buried
Flee! For his fate is that of doomed Gondolin
Destroy damasked gates. Nearly there. Goal of destruction they shall find.
Axes red and gold keep futile resistance.
Down be the Golden Gate. Sixth Gate of Loth Lothengriol
Smoke rises o'er stone and mountain
Eagles soar; witness the carnage
Manwe! Valar! Illuvatar!
Hear the pleas of your forsaken children!
Final Gate! The Great Gate! Renewed vigour! Strike the steel. Notch the fight.
Slay silver clad fighters spiked with diamonds.
Down be the Gate of Steel. Seventh Gate of fair Gondolin.
Firstborn, the Eldar fair
Joy to Valimar, destruction to Beleriand
Unnumbered tears might lodge an inkling in time
But hearken now and weep. For fair Gondolin is ruin
Gondolin of the Seven Gates prideful is no more.
