Beyond the sun and moon, and on the sea<br>
And by the strand there grew a golden tree<br>
The golden leaves grew all these years<br>
And on the sea now full of tears</p>

Too long I have dwell on the other shore<br>
In a fading crown twined with the golden elanor.<br>
But what ship would now come to me,<br>
To bear me across so wide a sea?</p>

I sang of leaves, and leaves there grew<br>
Of wind I sang, and the branches blew</p>

Too long I have dwell on the other shore<br>
In a fading crown twined with the golden elanor.<br>
But what ship would now come to me,<br>
To bear me across so wide a sea?</p>

Namárië! Nai hiruvalyë Valimar.<br>
Nail elyë hiryva. Namárië!</p>
