Rivendell - The Song Of Nimrodel Part I lyrics
rate meAn Elven-maid there was of old, <br />
A shining star by day:<br />
Her mantle white was hemmed with gold, <br />
Her shoes of silver-grey.<br />
<br />
A star was bound upon her brows, <br />
A loght was on her hair<br />
As sun upon the golden boughs<br />
In Lórien the fair.<br />
<br />
Her hair was long, her limbs were white, <br />
And fair she was and free; <br />
And in the wind she went as light<br />
As leaf of linden-tree.<br />
<br />
Beside the falls of Nimrodel, <br />
By water clear and cool, <br />
Her voice as falling silver fell<br />
Into the shining pool.<br />
<br />
Where now she wanders none can tell, <br />
In sunlight or in shade; <br />
For lost of yore was Nimrodel<br />
And in the mountains strayed.</
