Túrin drove his blade to the hilt
In the belly of the mighty Glaurung
Falling, his flesh burned by blood
Farewell
O twice beloved
A Túrin Turambar
Turún’ ambartanen

Master of doom
By doom mastered
O happy to be dead
Dying, the dragon reveals his curse
Nienor, daughter of Húrin, here is your brother
In horror and anguish, she lept to her death
Farewell
O twice beloved
A Túrin Turambar
Turún’ ambartanen

Master of doom
By doom mastered
O happy to be dead
Stirred from darkness
Túrin set the hilts upon the ground
And cast himself upon the black blade
Farewell
O twice beloved
A Túrin Turambar
Turún’ ambartanen

Master of doom
By doom mastered
O happy to be dead
Upon his tombstone, the Haladin wrote in the Cirth of Doriath:
TÚRIN TURAMBAR DAGNIR GLAURUNGA
Beneath that, they also wrote:
NIENOR NÍNIEL
Though her body
Could not be found
