Day is ended, dim my eyes But journey long before me lies Farewell, friends! I hear the call The ship's beside the stony wall Foam is white and waves are grey Beyond the sunset leads my way Foam is salt, the wind is free I hear the rising of the Sea Farewell, friends! The sails are set The wind is east, the moorings fret Shadows long before me lie Beneath the ever-bending sky But islands lie behind the Sun That I shall raise ere all is done Lands there are to west of West Where night is quiet and sleep is rest Guided by the Lonely Star Beyond the utmost harbour-bar I'll find the heavens fair and free And beaches of the Starlit Sea Ship, my ship! I seek the West And fields and mountains ever blest Farewell to Middle-earth at last I see the Star above my mast!
