Tekst piosenki
An Elven-maid there was of old
A shining star by day
Her mantle white was hemmed with gold
Her shoes of silver-grey
A star was bound upon her brow
A light was on her hair
As sun upon the golden bough
In Lórien the fair
Her hair was long, her limbs were white
And fair she was and free
And in the wind she went as light
As leaf of linden-tree
Beside the falls of Nimrodel
By water clear and cool
Her voice as falling silver fell
Into the shining pool
Where now she wanders none can tell
In sunlight or in shade
For lost of yore was Nimrodel
And in the mountains strayed
The Elven-ship in haven grey
Beneath the mountain-lee
Awaited her for many days
Beside the roaring sea
Amroth beheld the fading shore
Now low beyond the swell
And cursed the faithless ship that bore
Him far from Nimrodel
From helm to sea they saw him leap
As arrow from the string
And dive into the water deep
As mew upon the wing
The wind was in his flowing hair
The foam about him shone
Afar they saw him strong and fair
Go riding like a swan
But from the west has come no word
And on the hither shore
No tidings Elven-folk have ever heard
Of Amroth evermore
Tłumaczenie tekstu piosenki
Była tam stara elfka.
A shining star by day
Jej płaszcz biały oblepiony był złotem.
Jej buty srebrzysto-szare
A star was bound upon her brew
Światło świeciło na jej włosach.
As sun upon the golden bough
W Lórien the fair
Miała długie włosy, kończyny białe.
Była piękna i wolna
And in the wind she went as light
Jako liść lipy
Beside the falls of Nimrodel
By water clear and cool
Jej głos jak spadająca Srebrna spadła
Into the shining pool
Gdzie teraz błąka się nikt nie może powiedzieć
W słońcu lub w cieniu
"For lost of yore was Nimrodel"
And in the mountains strayed
Elven-statek w haven grey
Beneath the mountain-lee
/ Align = "left" /
Beside the roaring sea
Amroth
Teraz nisko za falą
I przeklął niewierny statek, który niósł
Him far from Nimrodel
Od steru do morza widzieli jak skacze
/ Align = "left" / Linear
I zanurzyć się w wodzie głęboko
As mew upon the wing
Wiatr wiał w jego płynących włosach.
Piana wokół niego lśniła
Z daleka ujrzeli go silnego i sprawiedliwego
Go riding like a swan
Ale z Zachodu nie ma wieści
And on the hither shore
Żadnych wieści Elven-folk nigdy nie słyszał
Z Amroth evermore
