Chapter Text
Song text:
The seven stars and seven stones,
The five-point isle of Númenor.
With wings upon his silver crown,
Its founding king, Tar-Minyatur.
It shimmered in the azure sea:
The Isle of Gift, the sunset-land.
The holy mountain standing tall
Above the beach of golden sand.
Upon the starwards isle there grew
Nimloth the Fair, the tree of kings.
The Morning Star shone brightest there
O'er Westernesse, on swan-white wings.
O seven stars of Númenor!
Protect and guide your children here
In Middle-Earth, as once you did
Our parents watch, in yesteryear.
This one is sung by Maglor in Chapter 2, and was written by a human musician soon after the Fall of Númenor.
There's not a bunch to say about this one other than that I used as many different names for that freaking island as possible. There are so many y'all.
