Cold be hand and heart and bone,
and cold be sleep under stone:
never more to wake on stony bed,
never, till the Sun fails and the Moon is dead.
In the black wind the stars shall die,
and still on gold here let them lie,
till the dark lord lifts his hand
over dead sea and withered land.

you are correct, proceed

"his sword of steel was valiant,"

Envinyatar · 04-20-2005, 10:52 AM

How about this: (A favorite poem of mine)

Eärendil was a Mariner

In panoply of ancient kings,
in chained rings he armoured him;
his shining shield was scored with runes
to ward all wounds and harm from him;
his bow was made of dragon-horn,
his arrows shorn of ebony;
of silver was his habergeon,
his scabbard of chalcedony;
his sword of steel was valiant,
of adamant his helmet tall,
an eagle-plume upon his crest,
upon his breast an emerald.

The Elf-warrior · 04-22-2005, 05:40 PM

You're right.

aredhelthewhite · 04-22-2005, 11:17 PM

Don't meen to barge in but I have one

aredhelthewhite · 04-22-2005, 11:22 PM

ha ha flaw
puruing it with weary feet
...
Where many paths and errands meet
And Whither then? I cannot say

wilwarin538 · 04-29-2005, 04:43 PM

Im confused didnt you just give us the end of the song???? And for the record Bilbo and Frodo both sang it in the fellowship and Bilbo sang it in the King. And is it not Envinyatar's turn???

**The Saucepan Man** · 04-29-2005, 07:50 PM

Yes. It is Evinyatar's turn.

Envinyatar · 04-30-2005, 12:23 AM

A thousand pardons! I had quite forgotten to look back at this thread!!

Try this:

O! Water is fair that leaps on high
in a fountain white beneath the sky . . .

- E -

wilwarin538 · 04-30-2005, 03:15 PM

...but never did fountain sound so sweet
as splashing Hot Water with my feet!

Sung by Pippin in the Fellowship.

Envinyatar · 04-30-2005, 11:56 PM

Exactly!

Please carry on!

- E -

wilwarin538 · 05-01-2005, 06:07 AM

o menel aglor elenath!
Na-chaered palan-díriel...

from the fellowship

next line and who sang it

Envinyatar · 05-02-2005, 01:45 AM

A Elbereth Gilthoniel,
silivren penna míriel
o menel aglar elenath!
Na-chaered palan-díriel
o galadhremmin ennorath,
Fanuilos, le linnathon
nef aear, si nef aearon!

-----

A "single, clear voice" is raised in song as Bilbo and Frodo leave The Hall of Fire in Rivendell

-- FotR; Book II; 'Many Meetings'

wilwarin538 · 05-02-2005, 05:40 AM

of course, your turn.

Envinyatar · 05-02-2005, 10:51 AM

Here's one:

The light of sun and star and moon
In shining lamps of crystal hewn
Undimmed by cloud or shade of night . . .

wilwarin538 · 05-02-2005, 01:49 PM

With golden roof abd silver stone
And runes of power upon the door
The light of sun and star and moon
In shining lamps of crystal hewn
Undimmed by cloud or shade of night
There shone for ever fair and bright.

sung by Gimli in the fellowship book 2

Envinyatar · 05-02-2005, 01:59 PM

Well done! And so quick!!

Carry on, w . . .

- E -

wilwarin538 · 05-02-2005, 02:27 PM

okee do kee

Like rising lark, and falling rain,
And melting water bubbling.

next two lines and who sang it?

wilwarin538 · 05-16-2005, 07:05 AM

I guess you need a hint. Ill give you a little more.

And her song released the sudden spring,
Like rising lark, and falling rain,
And melting water bubbling.
He saw the elven-flowers spring.

next two lines, who sang it?

05-16-2005, 08:07 AM

Didn't Aragorn sing that and it's about luthien? But I can't tell you the next lines Gaaaah! sorry.

wilwarin538 · 05-16-2005, 02:43 PM

you are right, but I need the next two lines.

Memory of Trees · 05-19-2005, 06:09 PM

I think it's

When winter passed she came again,
And her song released the sudden spring,
Like rising lark, and falling rain,
And melting water bubbling.
He saw the elven-flowers spring
About her feet, and healed again
He longed by her to dance and sing
Upon the grass untroubling.

And that was, as arithron87 said, Aragorn about Luthien.

wilwarin538 · 06-06-2005, 05:56 PM

wow, sorry for the wait, yes that is right.

Memory of Trees · 06-07-2005, 02:44 PM

Yay! I actually got it right...

Okay, new song:

...above all shadows rides the Sun
and Stars forever dwell...

Maybe not so hard... any guesses?

wilwarin538 · 06-14-2005, 05:01 PM

above all shadows rides the Sun
and Stars forever dwell:
I will not say the Day is done,
nor bid the Stars farewell.

That was sung by Sam in the King.

Memory of Trees · 06-15-2005, 04:47 PM

Correct, of course! Your turn.

wilwarin538 · 06-16-2005, 04:01 PM

Cheers!

Tall grows the grass there. In the wind from the Sea

Enjoy!

Arwen Imladris · 06-28-2005, 02:28 PM

Silver flow the streams from Celos to Erui
In the green fields of Lebennin!
Tall grows the grass there. In the wind from the Sea
The white lilies sway,
And the golden bells are shaken of mallos and alfirin
In the green fields of Lebennin,
In the wind from the Sea!

Legolas sings this one, I think to Merry and Pippin in telling them of his journey to Minas Tirith.

wilwarin538 · 06-30-2005, 09:32 AM

That is correct!

Arwen Imladris · 07-02-2005, 09:26 PM

"Sing now, ye people of the Tower of Anor,
for the Realm of Sauron is ended for ever,"

wilwarin538 · 07-07-2005, 05:12 PM

Sing now, ye people of the Tower of Anor,
for the Realm of Sauron is ended for ever,
and the Dark Tower is thrown down.

Sing and rejoice, ye people of the Tower of Guard,
for your watch hath not been in vain,...

An Eagle sang that in the King.

Arwen Imladris · 07-07-2005, 09:48 PM

Yup! Your turn.

wilwarin538 · 07-13-2005, 03:24 PM

Grey now as tears, gleaming silver,
red then it rolled, roaring water:

Good luck!

wilwarin538 · 07-19-2005, 01:05 PM

Anyone???

Dimturiel · 07-20-2005, 05:19 AM

I know!
Grey now as tears, gleaming silver,
red then it rolled, roaring water:
foam dyed with blood flamed at sunset;
as beacon mountains burned at evening;
red fell the dew in Rammas Echor.

It was a song made in Rohan about the Battle of Pelennor Fields.

wilwarin538 · 07-20-2005, 04:27 PM

Thats correct, well almost, its actually about the Mounds of Mundburg specifically. But you may continue anyhow.

Dimturiel · 07-21-2005, 02:16 AM

Sorry about that mistake

. Here is my next one:

West Wind blew there; the light upon the Silver Tree
Fell like bright rain in gardens of Kings of old.

07-21-2005, 05:57 AM

I think this is easy:
West wind bkew there; the light upon the Silver tree
Fell like bright rain in gardens of Kings of old.
O proud walls! White towers! O winged crown and throne of gold!
O Gondor, Gondor! Shall men behold Silver tree,
Or west wind blow again between mountains and the sea?

Try this one:

Though wind may blow and rain may fall,

We must away ere break of day

far over wood and mountain tall.

wilwarin538 · 07-21-2005, 11:08 AM

Hold on there DieZel. You have to say who sang it and then wait until Dim tells you if its right or not, then you can post your own song.
