Galadriel's Lament ~Allison Michelle Braund
A, Valinor, I long for Thee, Thy land I left so long ago, For Tirion, beyond the Sea, Thou art my one true Elvenhome.
For I left Thy shores carelessly Desired to rule a realm my own In wide unguarded lands and see The beauty of a world unknown.
I wandered near and wandered far Yet still my heart could not find rest. Beneath the moon and frosted star I dwelt, yet longed for cities blest.
Others have sailed across the Sea In ships so white, so bright, so free. Yet still I linger sorrowfully Yearning within my soul for Thee.
O Tirion! My Elvenhome! Eldamar, my heart breaks for Thee To wander in Thy gardens fair And dwell forever there with Thee.
