Eowyn and Faramir

[Lalaith]

Okay, I decided to post the poem, although I don't think it is that good.
It may include some mistakes, but I hope you forgive me because I had some difficulties in making an english rhyme (English is not my first language).
I'll post it in three parts, because it is too long and it consists of three parts.

[Lalaith]

A strong man was he
Who, in his dreams, the future could see
Black was his hair and beard
A hero, who nothing feared
From the character of his brother he was independent
The borders of Gondor he defended
In Ithilien the Dark Lord he tried to defeat
He wouldn’t take his ring if it lay on a street
But helped the ring-bearer to fulfil his task
Although too many questions he wouldn’t ask
He stayed in Ithilien till the end
With his men he tried to defend
But the enemy grew too strong
But this shall not be told in this song
He stood against Sauron’s attack
And left fallen Osgiliath with the enemy in his back
To help the City of Kings he flew
But in his heart he knew
That the Dark Lord was too strong
But he still carried on
Near Minas Tirith he fell hurt badly
And Prince Imrahil had to carry him home sadly
Then he was going to be burnt by his father
But brave Beregond saved him rather
A descendant of Númenor was he
And his fate will change for good, you’ll see

[Lalaith]

A maiden of the Rohirrim was she
The most beautiful you could ever see
A lady with a big, suffering heart
And a fighter, right from the start
She loved her brother Éomer very much
And from fear about the kind her heart was touched
She felt like in a gilded cage she was trapped
Until he suddenly in her life stepped
The hidden king of Gondor, Aragorn was his name
She fell in love with him, but he didn’t feel the same
Éowyn loved him because he was brave and strong
To him she wanted to belong
Bet he was already taken
She felt like forsaken
Because she was not allowed to ride to the fight
But she decided just right
Undercover she rode with the men
And arrived to defend the City of Gondor then
Hide her body and blonde hair under her armour
And fought like a man though it was a torture
The Lord of the Nazgúl killed Theoden king
And therefore Éowyn wanted vengeance for this thing
It was said that the Lord of Morgul couldn’t be killed by a man’s hand
But against the White Lady of Rohan it couldn’t stand
Many songs will men sing
How Éowyn and the Halfling killed the Witch-king
But she was hurt during the attack
And in belief of her death she was carried back

[Lalaith]

This two humans were in need to heal
But their illness nobody was able to reveal
And then Aragorn, the healer, came
Saw that they both had the same
They were sick of the Black Breath
But Elessar saved them from death
In the Houses of Healing the two of them first met
As soon as out of their beds they were let
Recognized their strong connection right from the start
And nothing should ever tear them apart
But the Lady of the Shield-arm still thought she loved Aragorn
To whom, in her heart, she had her love sworn
After the war her brother wanted to have her near
But she stayed in the White City with Faramir
He asked her why she decided to stay
But the true reason she could not say
Then Faramir told her that he loved her so much
Her heart it was able to touch
She realized that she loved him, too
And her love was really true
In the halls of Meduseld Éowyn and Faramir
Married to be forever near
Of great joy was this day
Later they went to beautiful Ithilien to stay
Faramir, Steward of Gondor, became prince of this land
And with Éowyn, Lady of Rohan, he lived happily hand in hand

I always thought that Faramir kept Éowyn barefoot and pregnant those early years after the war, and then there were maybe 4 dishwater blonde-ish kids running around the Palace grounds of Emyn Arnen. After 10-15 years, when Aragorn was often driven out of the Palace in Minas Tirith by all the daughters, and wife and their healthy elven pms, he would go fly-fishing the Anduin. He would stop by Emyn Arnen to visitafter landing a couple Anduin steelhead salmon and they would have a nice bbq. Of course by this time, Faramir too would find reasons to get away from the wife and kids, and so it was quite interesting when Aragorn would stop by while Faramir was gone. Of course, when Faramir and Eowyn would visit Aragorn and Arwen at the palace, there were parties that were talked of for generations!

Strange.

[The Lady of Ithilien]

Lalaith, that is beautiful. I relived their whole story again. Thank you!!!

I wish I knew Austrian, which others tell me is a very beautiful language, to be able to read it in the original.

[Lalaith]

Thank you Lady of Ithilien. I really gave my best but actually there isn't a german version because I only wrote it in english. It would have been to difficult to translate a german rhyme into an english one.
But a huge thank you!
