[Tuor of Gondolin]

Yess, but must be a bit tricksy.

Well then, what about:

What has roots as nobody sees,
Is taller than trees,
Up, up it goes,
And yet never grows?

The voices of the Noldor are echoed and multiplied by the hills in the Lammoth?

[Tuor of Gondolin]

That's it!

Specifically:
And even as the Noldor set foot upon the strand their cries were taken up into the hills and multiplied, so that a clamour as of countless mighty voices filled all the coasts of the North

Perhaps when the tumult was heard one of Morgoth's
lieutenants (Sauron?) turned to him and said
"They're ba---ack!" :eek:
