The night is drawing close around us
How much longer will we last, I wonder
The stars that once shone bright and fair in the sky
Are all covered by this shadow
The hope that once kindled in my heart
Now fades to a tiny faded light

Still I feel you within my heart
A hope that lies deep within
Your hope never fades
Nor your trust in me
My path once was hidden from me
But you light the way

Will our love endure this hard test?
Or will it flicker and die like so much already?
The only thing that I dream about now
Is your lovely face, surrounded by your raven coloured hair
How could I not stand against this shadow
When it threatens the life of one with such beauty

Alas my dreams must remain just dreams for the present
While you are safe with your father in Imladris
I am bound to wander in the East
The arm of the Enemy grows long
Soon he will have Imladris in his hand
To save you, I would send you to the Undying Lands

Sail away, my love
With the rest of your people
Leave Middle Earth and all who dwell here behind
You were not meant to die
Such as I was meant to die
Leave these shores, my love

Love does not depart in death
Nor will it when you leave
Though my heart be saddened
It will be glad to know that you live
Leave these shores and don't look back
Leave, and forget the troubles of this world
