Gil-Galad

Gil-Galad era o rei élficoGil-Galad was on Elven-king
Sobre ele o bardo canta com dorOf him the harper sadly sing
O último cujo reino era belo e livreThe last whose realm was fair and free
Entre as montanhas e o marBetween the mountains and the sea

Sua espada era longa, sua lança afiadaHis sword was long his lance was keen
Seu elmo brilhante era visto de longeHis shining helm afar was seen
As incontáveis estrelas do céuThe countless stars of heaven's field
Se refletiam em seu escudo prateadoWere mirrored in his silver shield

Mas há muito tempo ele partiuBut long ago he rode away
E onde ele habita ninguém pode dizerAnd where he dwelleth none can say
Pois em trevas caiu sua estrelaFor into darkness fell his star
Em Mordor, onde as sombras estãoIn Mordor where the shadows are
