Éalá Éarendel Engla Beorhtast
From Tolkien Gateway
The Voyage of Eärendel the Evening Star is a poem written by J.R.R. Tolkien in September 1914. It was published in The Book of Lost Tales Part 2. Tolkien was inspired by a group of Anglo-Saxon poems referred to as Crist, particularly these two lines:
éala éarendel engla beorhtast
Hail Earendel, brightest of angels
ofer middangeard monnum sended
sent over Middle-earth to men.
