Farewell sweet earth and northern sky
For ever blest, since here did lie
And here with lissom limbs did run
Beneath the Moon, beneath the Sun
Lúthien Tinúviel
More fair than mortal tongue can tell
Though all to ruin fell the world
And were dissolved and backward hurled
Unmade into the old abyss
Yet were its making good, for this-
The dusk, the dawn, the earth, the sea-
That Lúthien for a time should be
Lúthien Tinúviel
More fair than mortal tongue can tell
Though all to ruin fell the world
And were dissolved and backward hurled
Unmade into the old abyss
Yet were its making good, for this-
The dusk, the dawn, the earth, the sea-
That Lúthien for a time should be
