A fire in the night,

An ocean burning bright,

A fear raged in Fëanor,

As he bathed in the light.

The ships were burned in scorn

Yet by the break of dawn

The Doom of Mandor

Already had begun

Denied his wife’s request,

Left her in the west,

To wallow in misery,

No sons for her caress.

Consumed by furious rage,

And lusting for the jewels,

Fëanor was guided

By forces grim and cruel.

Go forth with Fëanor, Lord of all

Lest you abandon the oath that we have sworn

Go forth and leave me here, whilst ablaze I feel no pain

My life is penance for the kin that we have slain

Fleeing on the seas,

Finarfin left in sorrow,

Fingolfin was left ashore

Abandoned to the snow

As storms raged all around,

They lost all sight of land,

Darkened voices called on them

Your doom is at hand

Go forth with Fëanor, Lord of all

Lest you abandon the oath that we have sworn

Go forth and leave me here, whilst ablaze I feel no pain

My life is penance for the kin that we have slain

Unnumbered tears shall fall,

Valinor will be walled.

To evil ends you all will fail

All for the kinslaying at Aqualonde
