Ar sindanóriello caita mornië,
Ar ilyë tier undulávë lumbulë...

Ai Haldir o Lórien i mòr erin le
Helm's deep is your last battle
Firich, tûr gwaith lîn ù-beria le
You fall into the night, everything is lost
Tiro i gûr. Andelu i ven.
But don't fear. Your part is achieved
You will not fade. Your memory will stay.
Arda will remember your sacrifice Edhilion.
Hiro hon hîdh ab 'wanath.

Translation:

Haldir's Lament
Ah! Haldir of Lórien the darkness is on you
Helm's deep is your last battle
You are dying, the power of your people don't protect you
You fall into the night, everything is lost
Look at the death. The path is very dangerous.
But don't fear. Your part is achieved
You will not fade. Your memory will stay.
Middle-earth will remember your sacrifice Son of the Elves.
May he find peace after his death.
