Content notes:
Author notes: Thanks go to Zana, Morgynleri & Runa for encouragement & sanity-checking. Especial thanks to Bunn for her Return to Aman series, one of which scenes points out that Fëanor and his people arrived in Beleriand just in time to keep Cirdan and his people from being overwhelmed by Morgoth. This is not that song (it is much too short, for one thing), but it honors that material.
Summary: Before ever the Moon or Sun rose, Fëanor and his people fought against the forces of Morgoth. A song from the point of view of Cirdan's Falathrim.

Up from the sea in the starlight
Fell 'gainst the Shadow and foe
Fëanor drove back the darkness
With his sons, standing fast, wreaking woe

Up from the sea in the starlight,
Wielding keen swords wrought of steel
Fëanor harried the horrors
And his sons at his back death did deal

Up from the sea in the starlight
Wroth against shadow and flame
Fëanor fierce fought the Dark One
And his sons, steely-eyed, did the same

Up from the sea in the starlight
The plight of Endor in their hearts
Fëanor lifted the leaguer
With his sons blazing bright with their arts

Up from the sea in the starlight
Out from West to the shore
Seven bright sons and a grandson
And first 'gainst the foe: Fëanor
