Lyrics:

In the willow-meads of Tasarinan I walked in the
Spring.
Ah! the sight and the smell of the Spring in Nan-
tasarion!
And I said that was good.

I wandered in Summer in the elm-woods of Ossiriand.
Ah! the light and the music in the Summer by the
Seven Rivers of Ossir!
And I thought that was best.

To the beeches of Neldoreth I came in the Autumn.
Ah! the gold and the red and the sighing of leaves in the
Autumn in Taur-na-neldor!
It was more than my desire.

To the pine-trees upon the highland of Dorthonion I
climbed in the Winter.
Ah! the wind and the whiteness and the black branches
of Winter upon Orod-na-Thön!
My voice went up and sang in the sky.

And now all those lands lie under the wave,
And I walk in Ambaróna, in Tauremorna, in Aldalómë,
In my own land, in the country of Fangorn,
Where the roots are long,
And the years lie thicker than the leaves
In Tauremornalómë.

Sindarin version:

Min deilf-tathren Nan-tathren pannen ned Echuir.
Ai! I gened Echuir mi Nan-tathren!
A pennin han maer.
Reviannen ned Laer min eryn e-leilf mi Ossiriand.
Ai! I galad a glîr ned Laer nan hîr odog Ossir!
A nauthon han maerwain.
Nan mrethil Neldoreth tellin ned Iavas.
Ai! I vallen a caran a linnad e-laiss ned Iavas mi Taur-na-neldor!
Anírad nín tharn na han.
Nan thýn amin arandôr Dorthonion pannen ned Rhîw.
Ai! I ‘waew a loss a gylf vyrn e-‘rîw am Orod-na-Thôn!
Lam nín eriant a lind min menel.
A si dýr pain nuin aear,
A padon mi Amonthrúnen, mi Daurvorn, mi Orfuin.
Mi ndôr nín, min ndôr Fangorn
I thynd aind
A idhrinn týg erin laiss
Mi Daurvorfuin.
