The Silmarillion: ’Lúthien’s Lament’ by Eurielle - Lyric Video (Inspired by Tolkien)

“The song of Lúthien before Mandos was the song most fair that ever in words was woven, and the song most sorrowful that ever the world shall hear. Unchanged, imperishable, it is sung still in Valinor beyond the hearing of the world, and listening the Valar are grieved. For Lúthien wove two themes of words, of the sorrow of the Eldar and the grief of Men, of the Two Kindreds that were made by Ilúvatar to dwell in Arda, the Kingdom of Earth amid the innumerable stars. And as she knelt before him her tears fell upon his feet like rain upon stones; and Mandos was moved to pity, who never before was so moved, nor has been since.” ― . Tolkien, The Silmarillion. As the great Professor Tolkien never actually wrote any lyrics for this song, and to my knowledge nobody else has ever written any music for it either, I decided to take up the challenge of creating this legendary song myself. It wasn’t easy, and it stretched all of my skills to the limit, but I hope that you’ll feel I did it justice! Thank you for listening - Eurielle.

Drawing influence from myth, legend, and fantasy, as well as our own human nature, her music will transport you into another world...
