Together we will take the road beneath the bitter rain! I’ll look for thee, and wait for thee, until we meet again: When broken is the barren bough, and light and labour past When Winter comes, and singing ends when darkness falls at last I’ll look for thee, and call to thee I’ll come to thee again! When wind is in the deadly East, then in the bitter rain When trees shall fall and starless night devour the sunless day When Winter comes, the winter wild that hill and wood shall slay I’ll linger here beneath the Sun, because my land is best! When honey spills, and apple swells, though wind be in the West, When straw is gold, and ear is white, and harvest comes to town When Summer warms the hanging fruit and burns the berry brown When woodland halls are green and cool, and wind is in the West,Ĭome back to me! Come back to me, and say my land is best! When Summer lies upon the world, and in a noon of goldīeneath the roof of sleeping leaves the dreams of trees unfold, I’ll linger here, and will not come, because my land is fair! When sun and shower upon the earth with fragrance fill the air, When blossom like a shining snow is on the orchard laid, When Spring is come to garth and field, and corn is in the blade, When stride is long, and breath is deep, and keen the mountain air,Ĭome back to me! Come back to me, and say my land is fair! When light is on the wild-wood stream, and wind is on the brow, When spring unfolds the beechen-leaf and sap is in the bough, Here is the Tolkien Ensemble’s take on this verse.

Too long I have dwelt upon this Hither ShoreĪnd in a fading crown have twined the golden elanor.īut if of ships I now should sing, what ship would come to me, The leaves are falling in the stream, the river flows away. O Lórien! The Winter comes, the bare and leafless Day There long the golden leaves have grown upon the branching years,Īnd here beyond the Sundering Seas now fall the Elven-tears. In Eldamar beside the walls of Elven Tirion. Of wind I sang, a wind there came, and in the branches blew.īeyond the Sun, beyond the Moon, the foam was on the Sea,Īnd by the strand of Ilmarin there grew a golden Tree.īeneath the stars of Ever-eve in Eldamar it shone, I sang of leaves, of leaves of gold, and leaves of gold there grew: This poem was recited by Ian Holm, who played Bilbo in The Lord of the Rings, in a BBC radio dramatization of The Lord of the Rings.
