Thranduil's Song
Language is a bit modern for tLotR Forgive me.
My son, my firstborn,
Listen to what I have to say,
When your heart is torn,
And nothing's okay,
Just call and I'll be here for you.
Chorus:
Through sorrow undying,
White gulls' crying,
All hopes falling,
Silver shores calling,
Shadows rising,
No horizon,
I'll be here for you.
My child, my little one,
Listen close and you will hear,
A promise to my son,
To wipe away his tears;
Just call and I'll be here for you.
Chorus:
Despite sorrow undying,
White gulls' crying,
All hopes falling,
Silver shores calling,
Shadows rising,
No horizon,
I'll be here for you.
My beloved, my greenleaf,
Someday you will sing this song,
When your child's in grief,
And the nights are long,
Your son will call for you.
Chorus:
In sorrow undying,
White gulls' crying,
All hopes falling,
Silver shores calling,
Shadows rising,
No horizon,
I'll be here for you.
Chorus:
After sorrow undying,
White gulls' crying,
All hopes falling,
Silver shores calling,
Shadows rising,
No horizon,
I'll be here for you.
