| 00:00:22 | 00:00:24 | Galadriel | Nothing is evil in the beginning. |
| 00:00:24 | 00:00:25 | unnamed | Here! Over here! |
| 00:00:29 | 00:00:33 | Galadriel | And there was a time when the world was so young, |
| 00:00:33 | 00:00:36 | Galadriel | there had not yet been a sunrise. |
| 00:00:37 | 00:00:41 | Galadriel | But even then there was light. |
| 00:01:03 | 00:01:05 | unnamed | Well, is it finished yet? |
| 00:01:17 | 00:01:21 | unnamed | Even you couldn't possibly believe that old scrap will float. |
| 00:01:22 | 00:01:24 | Young Galadriel | It's not going to float. |
| 00:01:25 | 00:01:28 | Young Galadriel | It's going to sail. |
| 00:01:48 | 00:01:49 | Young Galadriel | Stop! |
| 00:01:50 | 00:01:51 | Young Galadriel | No, don't! |
| 00:01:52 | 00:01:54 | Young Galadriel | Stop, you'll break it! |
| 00:01:54 | 00:01:56 | Young Galadriel | Stop! Don't! |
| 00:01:56 | 00:01:58 | unnamed | Come on. |
| 00:01:56 | 00:01:58 | Young Galadriel | Stop, you're breaking it! Stop! |
| 00:02:02 | 00:02:04 | unnamed | I told you it wouldn't float. |
| 00:02:07 | 00:02:09 | unnamed | Get off me! |
| 00:02:09 | 00:02:11 | Finrod | Lose your footing again, Galadriel? |
| 00:02:19 | 00:02:21 | Finrod | It was a good ship, sister. |
| 00:02:21 | 00:02:23 | Young Galadriel | I made it just as you taught me. |
| 00:02:25 | 00:02:30 | Finrod | Do you know why a ship floats and a stone cannot? |
| 00:02:30 | 00:02:35 | Finrod | Because the stone sees only downward. |
| 00:02:36 | 00:02:40 | Finrod | The darkness of the water is vast and irresistible. |
| 00:02:41 | 00:02:43 | Finrod | The ship feels the darkness as well, |
| 00:02:43 | 00:02:47 | Finrod | striving moment by moment to master her and pull her under. |
| 00:02:49 | 00:02:51 | Finrod | But the ship has a secret. |
| 00:02:53 | 00:02:57 | Finrod | For unlike the stone, her gaze is not downward but up. |
| 00:02:58 | 00:03:00 | Finrod | Fixed upon the light that guides her, |
| 00:03:01 | 00:03:04 | Finrod | whispering of grander things than darkness ever knew. |
| 00:03:06 | 00:03:10 | Young Galadriel | But sometimes the lights shine just as brightly |
| 00:03:10 | 00:03:13 | Young Galadriel | reflected in the water as they do in the sky. |
| 00:03:13 | 00:03:16 | Young Galadriel | It's hard to say which way is up and which way is down. |
| 00:03:18 | 00:03:20 | Young Galadriel | How am I to know which lights to follow? |
| 00:03:33 | 00:03:34 | Young Galadriel | But that seems so simple. |
| 00:03:34 | 00:03:37 | Finrod | The most important truths often are. |
| 00:03:38 | 00:03:40 | Finrod | But you must learn to discern them for yourself. |
| 00:03:40 | 00:03:43 | Finrod | I won't always be here to speak them to you. |
| 00:03:43 | 00:03:44 | Young Galadriel | You won't? |
| 00:03:46 | 00:03:48 | Finrod | Come along. Mother and Father are waiting. |
| 00:03:59 | 00:04:01 | Galadriel | We had no word for death. |
| 00:04:02 | 00:04:05 | Galadriel | For we thought our joys would be unending. |
| 00:04:20 | 00:04:23 | Galadriel | We thought our light would never dim. |
| 00:04:28 | 00:04:31 | Galadriel | So when the Great Foe, Morgoth, |
| 00:04:31 | 00:04:34 | Galadriel | destroyed the very light of our home... |
| 00:04:37 | 00:04:39 | Galadriel | We resisted. |
| 00:04:43 | 00:04:47 | Galadriel | And a legion of Elves went to war. |
| 00:04:53 | 00:04:58 | Galadriel | We left Valinor, our home, and journeyed to a distant realm. |
| 00:04:59 | 00:05:05 | Galadriel | One filled with untold perils and strange creatures beyond count. |
| 00:05:05 | 00:05:09 | Galadriel | A place known as Middle-earth. |
