Lalaith and Ninìel
Lalaith
-the girl with the laughter in her eyes-
her mother’s joy
her father’s pride
Her life was difficult
(without reason)
Though she did not see it
Ninìel
-child of tears, the crying girl-
daughter of the river
she was alone
Little did she know
less did she desire
Together did they dance
through the enchanted forest
of their home
None could tell them apart
For difference flees
And they were alike
Alenë – father and man of wisdom
he saw their destination
Powerless to intervene
he was
not enough
The day arrived
They were gone
Only the wind was left
Howling in pain
he mourned their loss
Lalaith and Ninìel
-On their golden path
under the darkening sky-
Sang their song
Danced their dance
Laughed and cried
In Eternity’s embrace
For those of you that have read the Silmarillion or similar: You might recognize the names from the Tale of Tùrin Turambar. Well, I just used the names and the meaning of them, because I liked them.
Anyway, tell me what you think?
