Galadriel's Song of Eldamar

Canção de Galadriel para Eldamar

Galadriel's Song of Eldamar

Cantei as folhas, de ourofilhas, e, folhas vi brotar
I sang of leaves, of leaves of gold, and leaves of gold there grew
Cantei o vento e vento veio os galhos farfalhar
Of wind I sang, a wind there came and in the branches blew

Além do Sol, da Lua além, no Mar espuma havia
Beyond the Sun, beyond the Moon, the foam was on the Sea
Em Ilmarin dourando a praia uma Arvore crescia
And by the strand of Ilmarin there grew a golden Tree

Em Eldamar na Semprenoite com astros se ostentava
Beneath the stars of Ever-eve in Eldamar it shone
Onde Eldamar da bela Tirion os muros encontrava
In Eldamar beside the walls of Elven Tirion
Cresceram lá as douradas folhas nos ramos anuais
There long the golden leaves have grown upon the branching years
Enquanto o pranto de elfos cai aquém de nossos cais
While here beyond the Sundering Seas now fall the Elven-tears

Ó Lórien! Já vem o inverno, o Dia sem flor nem vida
O Lórien! The Winter comes, the bare and leafless Day
As folhas na água vão caindo do Rio em despedida
The leaves are falling in the stream, the River flows away

Ó Lórien! Já por demais do Mar estive deste Lado
O Lórien! Too long I have dwelt upon this Hither Shore
Entrelacei em coroa murcha o elanor dourado
And in a fading crown have twined the golden elanor

Se barcos eu cantasse agora, que barco iria voltar
But if of ships I now should sing, what ship would come to me
Que barco me conduziria por tão vasto Mar?
What ship would bear me ever back across so wide a Sea?
