And shadowy shapes did stare and roam Beneath the dark and starry dome That hung above the dawn of Earth And shaken it with silver mirth In later days when Morgoth first Fleeing the Gods, their bondage burst And on the mortal lands set feet Far in the north on his mighty seat There once, and long and long ago Before the sun and moon we know Were lit to sail above the world When first the shaggy woods unfurled There once, and long and long ago Before the sun and moon we know Were lit to sail above the world When first the shaggy woods unfurled And shadowy shapes did stare and roam Beneath the dark and starry dome That hung above the dawn of Earth And shaken it with silver mirth In later days when Morgoth first Fleeing the Gods, their bondage burst And on the mortal lands set feet Far in the north on his mighty seat There once, and long and long ago Before the sun and moon we know Were lit to sail above the world When first the shaggy woods unfurled There once, and long and long ago Before the sun and moon we know Were lit to sail above the world When first the shaggy woods unfurled Death to light, to law, to love Cursed be moon and stars and stars above May the dark and everlasting cold Drown Manwë, Varda and the shining sun Death to light, to law, to love Cursed be moon and stars and stars above May the dark and everlasting cold Drown Manwë, Varda and the shining sun Death to light, to law, to love Cursed be moon and stars and stars above May the dark and everlasting cold Drown Manwë, Varda and the shining sun Death to light, to law, to love Cursed be moon and stars and stars above May the dark and everlasting cold Drown Manwë, Varda and the shining sun
