MOON LETTERS : POETRY
The Last Alliance - by Briluialiel Gailhathel

The voices of doom were screaming then

DOOM, DOOM!

Evil came roaring from its den.

DOOM, DOOM!

Sauron and his evil horde

DOOM, DOOM!

For Morgoth’s claim all was assured.

DOOM, DOOM!

Orcs, goblins, Ringwraiths alike

DOOM, DOOM!

Gathered for the final fight.

DOOM, DOOM!

The Last Alliance of Elves and Men,

Ai, ai!

Those never to unite again.

Ai, ai!

Gil-galad and Elendil,

Ai, ai!

Whose bodies now lie cold and still.

Ai, ai!

Surrendered life to give the free

Ai, ai!

A lost gold Ring and a dead white Tree.

Ai, ai!

From Sauron’s hand, his finger fell

A, a!

Elendil’s Narsil slashed it well

A, a!

Isildur’s triumph came that day

A, a!

The hearts of all were light and gay

A, a!

Morgoth defeated, Sauron slain

A, a!

And lost now is Isildur’s bane.

A, a!
