"Of the Battle of Light and the theft of the Silmarilli"

שיר פרי עטו של יואל ואינגר (Elindor)

Where are the nights that we once loved?
when evening fell our hearts were glad
now morgoth filled them with his lies
and evenings fill our hearts with dread.

First Aule made two mighty lamps
and Varda filled them both with light
and Manwe took and hollowed them
to drive away the endless night.

The light our foe could not subdue
so to destroy it he set forth
from heavens high to earth he threw
the lamps that shone in south and north.

Yavana set on ezellohar
she closed her eyes and sang a song
and all the valar, near and far
in silence set and listened long

but Nienna washed the mound with tears
two trees from it had fully grown
one golden leaved, one silver clear
Laurelin and Telperion.

Then Melkor sought Ungoliant
together they had made their plans
she'll cover them in lightless clouds
he'll feed her lust with both his hands.

She covered them with her dark web
and under it they traveled far
until they came to valinor
and climbed up mound ezellohar

Then Morgoth killed the trees that grew
under the stars for ages long
and as he fled he also slew
lord finwe in his guarded home.

The silmarilli he had stole
for in his heart to light he craved
and then escaped from valinor
still hiding underneath the shade.
