[Verse] There on top of Ered Gorgoroth In hazel woods he wandered and he sought The sunlight streamed from o'er the cavern's mouths To there it seemed his fate had called him out [Verse 2] He beheld a world both dark and fair And wonder shook his limbs and bound him there Glancing into-Taur-na-Withloth Gray Unseeing His doom called him forth [Chorus] There dancing under leaves of pale gold There Lúthien Tinúviel fair There singing within woods old There he fell in deep longing Years fell away and his fate once delayed In the deep woods he had found his end [Verse 3] From Dorthonion to the vale below Gurgling waters sang tales of the woe In groves of hemlock she danced a dance of death There shadows loomed and beneath she leapt [Verse 4] He felt his heart yearning for her song And from dark wells he heard her voice call He sang in echo faltering and weak All things forgotten drove him forth to seek [Chorus] There dancing under leaves of pale gold
