lyrics

There’s no heal for these wounds,
a failing hope of revive
A flower and a fruit yielded before
the Trees’ last fading light
In the vigilant, murky realm,
sleepless we remained
We have held our voiceless council
and our choices we ordained

With eyes of bright, of splendour
that no one could withstand a stare
She became the chosen one to carry
the Golden Fruit up in the air
A lover of the silver,
he was pleased with their accord
He is the one with the task of tending
the Silver Flower for evermore

And as the first light of Moon
arose above the realm of the stars
Things awoken from their slumber;
a sign of hope had come at last
Then, the Sun arose in glory,
a great fire in the sky
Upon the towers of Pelóri,
it cast its rays on every side

(Tilion)
We’ve been sent to keep our courses
In this eternal celestial dance
Our light so bright, so radiant,
discloses all evil at a glance

(Arien)
Yet you’re drawn, drawn to me,
our dance has started to fall afoul
Your light is now diminished, it fled
and scorched away like a howl

(Varda)
For I decided, I wanted you to stay aloft
I proposed to alternate thy courses
Now as the one slept to west
The other from the east arose

By breaking your conjunctions;
I gave the land a night and day
My command for you to follow,
a wish I wanted you to simply obey

Atop of the Blessed Realm,
they are now sharing the open skies
A little sort of hide and seek below
the ground where all the evil lies
And while chasing one another
upon a predefined pace
Lured, he was, he came so close to her
and brought some darkness amid the day

(Reprise)
Of silver and gold, above the skies of Pelóri
Of silver and gold,
we brought light once again to our world

As fear dethroned the delights of evil,
He attempted to murder the light
Avoiding a war was of their choice, they raised mountain-walls of a great height

(Reprise)
Of silver and gold, around the walls of Pelóri
Of silver and gold,
we fortified our precious Valinor
