She chose to bring Beren back to life She wilfully got the gift of death Forsaking the realm of blessedness To dwell where mortality is rife ♪ In her the two kindreds have been joined In the eyes of many you will see The likeness of Lúthien the beloved The dancer that shone upon the lea ♪ At the door that seems impassable On the borders of the invisible At the end of every suffering Let me stay awhile In the aura of divinity In the limbo of expectancy Like a pilgrim at the eve of day Let me kneel and pray ♪ I'm shedding, I'm shedding All the world's tears We've waited too long In this painful wake of so many years ♪ Our kindred and their Their two paths have crossed If you know what pity is Oh, allow me to touch The bound of death The bound of death
