The Fall of Gil-galad was a poem sung by Sam Gamgee before he and the three other Hobbits, led by Strider, reached Weathertop. The lay known as "The Fall of Gil-galad" had been written in ancient times, and spoke of the death of the Elven High King Gil-galad, who was in battle with Sauron during the Battle of Mordor. Sometime during his stay in Rivendell, Bilbo translated it from an older tongue, probably Quenya. The song is incomplete, as Sam didn't want to learn the rest of the verses, as they dealt with Mordor and the war.
