"passing of the elves" of the Complete Recordings - The Fellowship of the Ring; with lyric in Sindarin (an Elven language)
The song is of a scene of the special extended edition and doesn't appear in the cinema-version of lord of the rings.
(Frodo and Sam are watching wood-elves who are leaving middle-earth, while they singing this song)

The song contains parts of a poem, written by Tolkien.
English translation:
Snow White! Snow White! O Lady clear!
O Queen beyond the Western Seas! O Light to us that wander there Amid the world of woven trees! Gilthoniel! O Elbereth! Clear are thy eyes and bright is breath, Snow-white! Snow-white! We sing to thee In a far land beyond the Sea! O Stars that in the Sunless Year With shining hand by thee were sown, In windy fields now bright and clear We see your silver blossom blown! O Elbereth Gilthoniel! We still remember, we who dwell In this far land beneath the trees, Thy starlight on the Western Seas.
