For ever and ever
Shall I be alone
For ever and ever
Shall I be on throne
The Peace has been long
Many times have I been aroused by the light of new day!
Many times have I seen the birds fly up high!

But once again a great evil rises up high
A Elbereth! A Elbereth!
My people are ready
For the call of the faith
For death or for life
For glory or shame
May the songs of the future
Sing praises to past

May we return
To tell the tail
Of the glory and might
Of the towers of sight
Of the light of the walls
And the foolishness calls

By the calls of the king
The smithies loudly sing
The Return of the Rings!
O The Return of the Rings!
Their souls were lost
In the shadows of glory

The king was wise
But has not for-seen
That the power of rings
Shall be the ruin
For all of his hope of the future of Taros

And smithies of the king sing
Oh Rings! Hail The Rings!
The shadows have come
And now the fairest king of men
Is possessed by the power so great
That through the enchantment
He sees not what he does

Here is the evil reborn once again
Here will I challenge the lords of afar
And here I see
Oh Minas Isnar
Oh Minas Isnar
Such glorious power
Oh why did you leave?
The side of the light
And went to fight
Against the light
Against the might

And may the day come when the glory
The friendship
And the might of Vala
Arise from the ashes
And dawn a new day
Arise! Arise!
Arise from the darkness
To the light of new day
But the evil is here,
And a long quest begins
Oh why? Oh why?
Oh why o fair Minas Isnar
Have you abandoned the glory of light!
