Kor |
| O fading town upon an island hill, |
| Old shadows linger in thine ancient gate, |
| Thy robe is grey, thine old heart now is still; |
| Thy towers silent in the mist await their crumbling end |
| While through the storeyed elms |
| The gliding black water leaves these inland realms, |
| And slips between long meadows to the Sea, |
| Still bearing downward over murmurous falls |
| One day and then another to the Sea |
| And slowly thither many years have gone |
| All thy trees, Kortirion, were bent, |
| And shook with sudden whispering lament: |
| For passing were the days, and doomed the nights |
| When flittering ghost-moths danced round |
| tapers in the moveless air nighttime |
| And doomed already were the radiant dawns, |
| The odour and the noise of meads, |
| when all thy trees were bent, and shook with sudden whispering lament |
| And slowly thither many years have gone |
| since first the elves here built ancient, renowned Kortirion |
