Lyrics
[Chorus]
An Elven-maid there was of old,
A shining star by day:
Her mantle white was hemmed with gold,
Her shoes of silver-grey.
[Instrumental harp]
a-------aa,,,,,
[Verse_1]
A star was bound upon her brows,
A light was on her hair
As sun upon the golden boughs
In Lorien the fair.
[Chorus]
An Elven-maid there was of old,
A shining star by day:
Her mantle white was hemmed with gold,
Her shoes of silver-grey.
[Instrumental flute]
a-------aa,,,,,
[Verse_2]
Her hair was long, her limbs where white,
And fair she was and free;
And in the wind she went as light
As leaf of linden-tree.
[Chorus]
An Elven-maid there was of old,
A shining star by day:
Her mantle white was hemmed with gold,
Her shoes of silver-grey.
[Instrumental flute]
a-------aa,,,,,
[Verse_3]
Beside the falls of Nimrodel,
By water clear and cool,
Her voice as falling silver fell
Into the shinning pool.
[Chorus]
An Elven-maid there was of old,
A shining star by day:
Her mantle white was hemmed with gold,
Her shoes of silver-grey.
[Instrumental flute]
