Antique Lyrics of Arda
Walküre:
FEAST OF STARLIGHT (OLD SONG)
--- Zitat ---Love, with love camest thou to be,
Render each dawn bright, bless me,
I beg, I pray and ask,
May thy grace be granted, may we fulfil the task.
If one be worthy enough,
Give him serene ghost and laugh,
If thou be'st to save,
Spare the mariner from the furious wave.
Thee acclaim all as rightful queen,
Better prodigy hath the mere folk never seen,
Lady of starlight, fairest star,
Hope in celestial vastness, not dim nor far.
In eternity shall we praise,
Who lamps in heaven was to raise,
Methinks, how lucky am I beneath thy skies to live,
This I keep singing, morn and eve.
--- Ende Zitat ---
Walküre:
SAT ON GRIEF
--- Zitat ---Lone and forgotten,
Under a dim shadow, under which green is fatally rotten,
His kingdom boasts no joy,
Though souls are not brought thither through ill ploy,
Or even deception, that finds no place within the Holy Shire,
Verily, it's human sin to doubt such blessed sire,
Counted among the potent High,
Whose sombre guests wail, weep and sigh,
Eerie western caverns serve him as hidden home,
Across seas common folks ignore, passed the blue and its foam.
There, he's sat on grief,
No wicked wind, no haunting whiff,
All rests still and calm,
Ghosts murmur prayer and psalm,
Sad spirits gather, their silence fills those funereal halls,
But relief they eventually found behind the West's walls,
Be death tragic, serene or remorseful,
Nought is made worse in this grim shelter, or woeful,
I shall sing these elegies twice,
May the Judge pardon the pious and clear vice.
--- Ende Zitat ---
Walküre:
I PROFESS, THY SERVANT AM I
--- Zitat ---I profess, thy servant am I,
I swear, my heart is no harbour of lie,
I vow, ever shall I cherish so bright a sight,
Thy might through eras, thy sidereal light.
To battle the vile foe,
To avert the imminent woe,
Fairest of the fair, finest among fine,
Thy faith is my fire, my heart shall be thine.
--- Ende Zitat ---
Walküre:
THAT STUBBORN DWARF
--- Zitat ---That stubborn dwarf, hard as a rock,
As the marble he's used to moulding, labouring amok,
Great faces he mocks in the stone,
Ceasing work when the gleeful robin away has flown.
Gentle and noble dwarf,
Undaunted, never serf,
What if he might cross the very same Hobbit's way?
Unlikely, for much need he guard his wealth and shape clay.
--- Ende Zitat ---
Walküre:
BEFORE THE GATE
--- Zitat ---Before the gate we knelt not,
Atrocious clashes and many fiends have we fought,
Before the gate, the king of Erebor lies dead,
His army he's proudly to the battlefield led.
Be you all cursed, Evil Men,
Mirroring wolves, swarming out of their den,
You've struck our fortress, wielding the foul flames of war,
Come from afar, come from lands wrapped in your uncanny lore.
--- Ende Zitat ---
