《Song of Beren and Lúthien》歌词

[00:00:29] the leaves were long, the grass was green,

[00:00:34] the hemlock-umbels tall and fair,

[00:00:38] and in the glade a light was seen

[00:00:43] of stars in shadow shimmering.

[00:00:47] tinúviel was dancing there

[00:00:52] to music of a pipe unseen,

[00:00:56] and light of stars was in her hair,

[00:01:01] and in her raiment glimmering.

[00:01:14] there beren came from mountains cold,

[00:01:18] and lost he wandered under leaves,

[00:01:23] and where the elven-river rolled

[00:01:27] he walked alone and sorrowing.

[00:01:32] he peered between the hemlock-leaves

[00:01:37] and saw in wander flowers of gold

[00:01:41] upon her mantle and her sleeves,

[00:01:46] and her hair like shadow following.

[00:01:59] enchantment healed his weary feet

[00:02:03] that over hills were doomed to roam;

[00:02:08] and forth he hastened, strong and fleet,

[00:02:12] and grasped at moonbeams glistening.

[00:02:17] through woven woods in elvenhome

[00:02:21] she tightly fled on dancing feet,

[00:02:26] and left him lonely still to roam

[00:02:30] in the silent forest listening.

[00:02:45] he heard there oft the flying sound

[00:02:49] of feet as light as linden-leaves,

[00:02:54] or music welling underground,

[00:02:58] in hidden hollows quavering.

[00:03:02] now withered lay the hemlock-sheaves,

[00:03:07] and one by one with sighing sound

[00:03:12] whispering fell the beechen leaves

[00:03:16] in the wintry woodland wavering.

[00:03:29] he sought her ever, wandering far

[00:03:33] where leaves of years were thickly strewn,

[00:03:37] by light of moon and ray of star

[00:03:42] in frosty heavens shivering.

[00:03:46] her mantle glinted in the moon,

[00:03:51] as on a hill-top high and far

[00:03:55] she danced, and at her feet was strewn

[00:04:00] a mist of silver quivering.

[00:04:22] when winter passed, she came again,

[00:04:26] and her song released the sudden spring,

[00:04:31] like rising lark, and falling rain,

[00:04:35] and melting water bubbling.

[00:04:39] he saw the elven-flowers spring

[00:04:43] about her feet, and healed again

[00:04:48] he longed by her to dance and sing

[00:04:52] upon the grass untroubling.

[00:05:07] again she fled, but swift he came.

[00:05:11] tinúviel! tinúviel!

[00:05:16] he called her by her elvish name;

[00:05:20] and there she halted listening.

[00:05:24] one moment stood she, and a spell

[00:05:29] his voice laid on her: beren came,

[00:05:33] and doom fell on tinúviel

[00:05:38] that in his arms lay glistening.

[00:05:51] as beren looked into her eyes

[00:05:55] within the shadows of her hair,

[00:05:59] the trembling starlight of the skies

[00:06:03] he saw there mirrored shimmering.

[00:06:07] tinúviel the elven-fair,

[00:06:12] immortal maiden elven-wise,

[00:06:17] about him cast her shadowy hair

[00:06:22] and arms like silver glimmering.

[00:06:36] long was the way that fate them bore,

[00:06:41] o'er stony mountains cold and grey,

[00:06:45] through halls of iron and darkling door,

[00:06:49] and woods of nightshade morrowless.

[00:06:53] the sundering seas between them lay,

[00:06:58] and yet at last they met once more,

[00:07:02] and long ago they passed away

[00:07:08] in the forest singing sorrowless.
