[00:06.67]	Earendil was a mariner
[00:08.09]	that tarried in Arvernien;
[00:09.39]	he built a boat of timber felled
[00:11.07]	in Nimbrethil to journey in;
[00:13.53]	her sails he wove of silver fair,
[00:15.14]	of silver were her lanterns made,
[00:16.61]	her prow was fashioned like a swan,
[00:18.21]	and light upon her banners laid.
[00:21.41]	In panoply of ancient kings,
[00:23.38]	in chainéd rings he armoured him;
[00:24.89]	his shining shield was scored with runes
[00:26.56]	to ward all wounds and harm from him;
[00:28.96]	his bow was made of dragon-horn,
[00:30.64]	his arrows shorn of ebony,
[00:32.55]	of silver was his habergeon,
[00:35.87]	his scabbard of chalcedony;
[00:45.06]	his sword of steel was valiant,
[00:49.20]	of adamant his helmet tall,
[00:52.84]	an eagle-plume upon his crest,
[00:57.67]	upon his breast an emerald.
[01:10.50]	Beneath the Moon and under star
[01:11.91]	he wandered far from northern strands,
[01:13.46]	bewildered on enchanted ways
[01:14.83]	beyond the days of mortal lands.
[01:17.56]	From gnashing of the Narrow Ice
[01:19.17]	where shadow lies on frozen hills,
[01:20.73]	from nether heats and burning waste
[01:22.34]	he turned in haste, and roving still
[01:29.65]	on starless waters far astray
[01:35.62]	at last he came to Night of Naught,
[01:43.15]	and passed, and never sight he saw
[01:50.16]	of shining shore nor light he sought.
[02:05.40]	The winds of wrath came driving him,
[02:08.73]	and blindly in the foam he fled
[02:13.09]	from west to east and errandless,
[02:17.83]	unheralded he homeward sped.
[02:28.31]	There flying Elwing came to him,
[02:31.74]	and flame was in the darkness lit;
[02:36.02]	more bright than light of diamond
[02:40.97]	the fire upon her carcanet.
[02:53.21]	The Silmaril she bound on him
[02:54.66]	and crowned him with the living light
[02:56.17]	and dauntless then with burning brow
[02:57.68]	he turned his prow; and in the night
[03:00.15]	from Otherworld beyond the Sea
[03:01.71]	there strong and free a storm arose,
[03:03.37]	a wind of power in Tarmenel;
[03:04.98]	by paths that seldom mortal goes
[03:17.60]	his boat it bore with biting breath
[03:21.26]	as might of death across the grey
[03:25.90]	and long-forsaken seas distressed:
[03:30.74]	from east to west he passed away.
[03:39.66]	Through Evernight he back was borne
[03:45.01]	on black and roaring waves that ran
[03:50.56]	o'er leagues unlit and foundered shores
[03:56.15]	that drowned before the Days began,
[04:02.70]	until he heard on strands of pearl
[04:07.48]	when ends the world the music long,
[04:13.15]	where ever foaming billows roll
[04:18.85]	the yellow gold and jewels wan.
[04:32.64]	He saw the Mountain silent rise
[04:34.15]	where twilight lies upon the knees
[04:35.75]	of Valinor, and Eldamar
[04:37.33]	beheld afar beyond the seas.
[04:40.36]	A wanderer escaped from night
[04:41.81]	to haven white he came at last,
[04:43.58]	to Elvenhome the green and fair
[04:45.25]	where keen the air, where pale as glass
[04:53.21]	beneath the Hill of Ilmarin
[04:59.36]	a-glimmer in a valley sheer
[05:06.69]	the lamplit towers of Tirion
[05:13.98]	are mirrored on the Shadowmere.
[05:31.43]	He tarried there from errantry,
[05:33.04]	and melodies they taught to him,
[05:34.61]	and sages old him marvels told,
[05:36.17]	and harps of gold they brought to him.
[05:38.85]	They clothed him then in elven-white,
[05:40.68]	and seven lights before him sent,
[05:42.29]	as through the Calacirian
[05:44.00]	to hidden land forlorn he went.
[05:51.92]	He came unto the timeless halls
[05:57.66]	where shining fall the countless years,
[06:05.09]	and endless reigns the Elder King
[06:11.64]	in Ilmarin on Mountain sheer;
[06:27.93]	and words unheard were spoken then
[06:31.58]	of folk of Men and Elven-kin,
[06:36.01]	beyond the world were visions showed
[06:41.00]	forbid to those that dwell therein.
[06:52.00]	A ship then new they built for him
[06:55.46]	of mithril and of elven-glass
[06:59.89]	with shining prow; no shaven oar
[07:04.78]	nor sail she bore on silver mast:
[07:13.30]	the Silmaril as lantern light
[07:18.14]	and banner bright with living flame
[07:23.97]	to gleam thereon by Elbereth
[07:29.19]	herself was set, who thither came
[07:34.85]	and wings immortal made for him,
[07:39.44]	and laid on him undying doom,
[07:44.08]	to sail the shoreless skies and come
[07:50.79]	behind the Sun and light of Moon.
[07:55.85]	From Evereven's lofty hills
[08:02.17]	where softly silver fountains fall
[08:09.62]	his wings him bore, a wandering light,
[08:16.68]	beyond the mighty Mountain Wall.
[08:34.56]	From World's End then he turned away
[08:35.87]	and yearned again to find afar
[08:37.48]	his home through shadows journeying,
[08:39.10]	and burning as an island star
[08:41.86]	on high above the mists he came,
[08:43.53]	a distant flame before the Sun,
[08:45.79]	a wonder ere the waking dawn
[08:49.29]	where grey the Norland waters run.
[08:55.32]	And over Middle-earth he passed
[09:00.01]	and heard at last the weeping sore
[09:05.42]	of women and of elven-maids
[09:10.85]	in Elder Days, in years of yore.
[09:16.08]	gut on him mighty doom was laid,
[09:20.92]	till Moon should fade, an orbéd star
[09:26.17]	to pass, and tarry never more
[09:31.41]	on Hither Shores where mortals are;
[09:44.95]	for ever still a herald on
[09:46.52]	an errand that should never rest
[09:49.14]	to bear his shining lamp afar,
[09:52.61]	the Flammifer of Westernesse.
