The Ent and the Entwife
ENT:
When Spring unfolds the beechen leaf, and sap is in the bough;
When light is on the wild-wood stream, and wind is on the brow;
When stride is long, and breath is deep, and keen the mountain-air,
Come back to me! Come back to me, and say my land is fair!
ENTWIFE:
When Spring is come to garth and field, and corn is in the blade;
When blossom like a shining snow is on the orchard laid;
When shower and Sun upon the Earth with fragrance fill the air,
I'll linger here, and will not come, because my land is fair.
ENT:
When Summer lies upon the world, and in a noon of gold
Beneath the roof of sleeping leaves the dreams of trees unfold;
When woodland halls are green and cool, and wind is in the West,
Come back to me! Come back to me, and say my land is best!
ENTWIFE:
When Summer warms the hanging fruit and burns the berry brown;
When straw is gold, and ear is white, and harvest comes to town;
When honey spills, and apple swells, though wind be in the West,
I'll linger here beneath the Sun, because my land is best!
ENT:
When Winter comes, the winter wild that hill and wood shall slay;
When trees shall fall and starless night devour the sunless day;
When wind is in the deadly East, then in the bitter rain
I'll look for thee, and call to thee; I'll come to thee again!
ENTWIFE:
When Winter comes, and singing ends; when darkness falls at last;
When broken is the barren bough, and light and labour past;
I'll look for thee, and wait for thee, until we meet again:
Together we will tkae the road beneath the bitter rain!
BOTH:
Together we will take the road that leads into the West,
And far away will find a land where both our hearts may rest Видеоклипы
Omg I can't describe the emotions this song brought to me T;___;T i find the story of the ents and entwifes one of the sadest and most tragic in all of lotr:,( just because you don't know what happened to the entwifes, wether they got burned together with the brown lands or if they could escape and now dwell in other woods and search for their ents... When treebeard told me that they had lost their wifes and now can't find them anymore, this made me choke up in both book and movie
This is one of my absolute favourites of Tolkien's poems, and... oh god, I can't describe the emotions this woke in me. You've got a beautiful voice, you're amazing at setting music to these pems...
I'm actually crying. This is so beautiful and sad! Poor Treebeard. Thanks for making this! It's gorgeous!
Such an emotional song. My favourite in the book.
Well performed, that was beautiful.
I'm in love with this song, I've been listening to it all night!
I can't stop it, I keep on listening this song over and over again, it is a fresh mountain spring that fills my withered soul and heart, but I can't quench my thirst, I want more and more! Thanks to thee, it's a are pure magic!
This Elf maiden sings buetifully.
Great performance!
This is my favorite performance of the Ent and the Entwife. So beautiful, thank you.
I was debating on having this as a reading at our wedding, hearing you sing this has made me so sure it is the right choice. Beautiful voice. Thank you!
Haha, thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! And I do plan on posting more! :)
Ive heard this song (along with a few other of your Tolkien pieces) at least a hundred times in the past week. But what surprises me is that it still isn't background music for me. I play the song, scroll to the lyrics and sing along while reading. The I scroll up and play again.
It's just so beautiful...
a friend of mine had also composed this poem way way back in early 70's. along more or less the same line. thanks for bringing back fond memories.
Absolutely beautiful. Perhaps the first rendition of any of the songs of Middle Earth that I've heard that does the material justice and captures the feeling from the books.
Beautiful as always. As for Entwives - look in Dorwinion. Apparently before he died Tolkien wrote on a map of Middle Earth that they might be found north west of the sea of Rhun though its hard to think the Ents wouldn't have looked there
Perfectly what I had in mind for this song! Thank you so much! I found another recording of this song, but to me it just didn't sound right. Needed to be sung as a a folk song. Very nice! Thank you. I want this read to me when I am ready to go home to Heaven...for joys yet to come. I doubt that many will be interested to do a memorial for me, but this would be something nice to be read for them...and for them to know I'm home at last with my Jesus and family.
Beautiful song, excellent singing. You're really talented.
With love from Poland :*
Your amazing. Thank you so much
Your song is very very good I can't stop hearing it. Your voice is also awesome ! Congratulations !
It was amazing. I was searching on RUclips for a version like this. with no doubt the best version of The Ent and the Ent-wife
I agree with you. In my head it was a classic folk song. Not an opera. Both are very nice...would love to hear Ian Anderson record this.
That was beautiful
