How It All Began Lyrics

[00:07.000]	There was Ilúvatar, the whole father
[00:11.200]	And he made first the Ainur,
[00:14.000]	The Holy Ones,
[00:16.000]	That were the offspring of his thought,
[00:21.000]	And they were with him before time.
[00:24.500]	And he spoke to them,
[00:26.400]	Propounding to them themes of the music;
[00:30.500]	And they sang before him.
[00:35.200]	And it came to pass that Ilúvatar called together all the Ainur
[00:41.800]	And declared to them a mighty theme,
[00:45.500]	Unfolding to them things greater and more wonderful
[00:50.200]	Than he had yet revealed;
[00:56.000]	And the glory of its beginning and the splendour of its end
[01:00.500]	Amazed the Ainur.
[01:09.800]	Then Ilúvatar said:
[01:11.000]	'Of the theme that I have declared to you,
[01:15.000]	But all incomplete,
[01:17.300]	I desire now
[01:19.500]	That you will make clear to me together,
[01:22.500]	A Great Music.
[01:24.000]	And since I have kindled you with fire,
[01:28.000]	Ye shall show exercises of your powers
[01:31.000]	In adorning this theme,
[01:34.500]	Each with his own thoughts and devices.'
[01:40.000]

[00:07.000]	There was Ilu vatar, the whole father
[00:11.200]	And he made first the Ainur,
[00:14.000]	The Holy Ones,
[00:16.000]	That were the offspring of his thought,
[00:21.000]	And they were with him before time.
[00:24.500]	And he spoke to them,

[00:56.000]	And the glory of its beginning and the splendour of its end
[01:00.500]	Amazed the Ainur.
