The poems listed here are from various
writings of Tolkien. Although the majority can be found in The Hobbit or LotR, some
come from The Tolkien Reader. Of course, I do plan on adding more in the future.
Note that not all the poems in Tolkien's writings have names. I have
given names to those that were without so as to make a distinction of it.
O
Elbereth! Gilthoniel!
Snow-white! Snow-white! O Lady clear!
O Queen beyond the Western seas!
O Light to us that wander here
Amid the world of woven trees!
Gilthoniel! O Elbereth!
Clear are thy eyes and bright thy breath!
Snow-white! Snow-white! We sing to thee
In a far land beyond the sea.
O stars that in the Sunless year
With shining hand by her were sown,
In windy fields now bright and clear
We see your silver blossom blown!
O Elbereth! Gilthoniel!
We still remember, we who dwell
In this far land beneath the trees,
Thy starlight on the Western Seas.
