Arwen of Rivendell,
You met a mortal soul.
In your once lonely heart, love dwells,
For Elessar, heir to the throne.

Elrond cautioned you–beware!
He feared your fragile heart.
In Aragorn’s eyes, you fix your stare,
and tear yourself apart.

The Evenstar you once did hold,
I see is now his prize.
Instead of watching life unfold,
beside him you will die.

For your love, I fear you’ll fall;
a star dimmed with the day.
Yet a loveless life is nothing at all,
so with him you must stay.
