| A Ranger's Carol |
| I wonder as I wander out under the sky How Elrond's fair daughter could promise to die For a poor orn'ry Ranger like you and like I; I wonder as I wander out under the sky. When first I did glimpse her, she held me in thrall, Just as Beren was caught within Neldoreth's wall; For Elbereth's light from her fair brow did fall, And the beauty of Lúthien it then did recall. If Undómiel had wanted for any wee thing, A star in the sky or a bird on the wing, The poor orn'ry Ranger her heart's wish would bring; But if we'd cleave together, then I must be King. I wonder as I wander out under the sky How Elrond's fair daughter could promise to die For a poor orn'ry Ranger like you and like I; I wonder as I wander out under the sky... |
