By Zhie

Well, Fëanor had seven sons

Seven sons had he

Maglor, Maedhros

Amrod, Amras

And the other three

Fëanor, Fëanor, greatest of the Noldor, greatest of them all

Fëanor, Fëanor, thought he’d really go far, but he did fall

Well, Fëanor made the silmarils

Took light from each tree

But their light

Was just so bright

Morgoth stole them across the sea

Fëanor, Fëanor, greatest of the Noldor, greatest of them all

Fëanor, Fëanor, thought he’d really go far, but he did fall

Well, Fëanor led the Noldor forth

To take ships to M-e

He led the host

Along the coast

Where they did slay the Teleri

Fëanor, Fëanor, greatest of the Noldor, greatest of them all

Fëanor, Fëanor, thought he’d really go far, but he did fall

Well, Fëanor drove on to Angband

Though outnumbered was he

Killed by Gothmog

The Lord Balrog

Flames set his spirit free

Fëanor, Fëanor, greatest of the Noldor, greatest of them all

Fëanor, Fëanor, though he lives no more, he’s in Mandos’ hall

Fëanor, Fëanor, greatest of the Noldor, greatest of them all

Fëanor, Fëanor, thought he’d really go far, but he did fall
