O come, O come, and for us fight, And find the Tree on mountain height, Which anciently the Eldar gave To NĂºmenor now under wave.

O come, thou son of Arathorn, And gladden all who wait here and mourn From out of Sauron's darkness bring Thy people into light and spring.

O come, Telcontar, come and cheer Our spirits by thy presence here Restore the might of thine own country And rule us in your wise majesty.

O come, thou heir of Elendil, come And make sad Gondor thy new home; Make safe the land that quails from the Eye, And bring an end to misery.

O come thou child of Eriador And share with us thy knowledge of lore; Forsaking not thy people to dwell On those misfortunes all may foretell.

O come, Estel our promised hope, bind Us as a nation leading mankind; From dark forbodings give us release, And bring to us a time of peace.
