Summary: Traditional old Lothlórien carol.

The mallorn and niphredil
When they are both in bloom
Of all the trees that are in the wood
The mallorn bears the crown
Refrain:
Oh the rising of the stars
And the running of the stream
The blowing of lord Manwë's winds
Sweet singing of Varda
The mallorn wears a pale bark
As tall as any tower
And Arien moves 'cross the sky
To count off every hour
Refrain
The mallorn bears a blossom
As bright as any gold
And Tilion shall follow her
Until Arda grows old
Refrain
The mallorn bears its gold leaves
Throughout the winter chill
Eärendil shall guide us home
To Valinor, there still
Refrain
The mallorn bears a ripe nut
As wholesome as the day
And we shall see Ilúvatar
And music for him play
Refrain
The mallorn and niphredil
When they are both in bloom
Of all the trees that are in the wood
The mallorn bears the crown
Refrain
