From
linwesingollo, who got it from elvish.org:
"...A Sindarin text which contains a Quenya poem being the continuation of Galadriel's Lament in The Lord of the Rings. It is intended to be an apocryphal letter from old Samwise Gamgee to King Aragorn of Minas Tirith. Sam tells about about the last moments of Master Frodo and Galadriel in Middle-earth. Galadriel's Quenya poem Altariello Nainië Mistalondessë ('Galadriel's Lament in Grey Haven') should be compared with Galadriel's Lament found in The Fellowship of the Ring."
There's also a link to the Tengwar transcription of the final version of the letter on the same page. Truly beautiful.
Sam's Letter.
A nice idea: The Apocryphal Letters of Samwise, isn't it?
