O Tra-la-la-lally, Come Down to the Valley!

Blame this little ditty on Tolkien... I got that "Tra-la-la-lally / Come back to the valley!" stuck in my head and ended up editing a bit and making up a bit until my own little version of the 'Welcome to Imladris' song appeared.  Could be worse, I guess... it could have been "Ho, Tom Bombadil, ho Tom Bombadillo / Bright blue his jacket is, and his boots are yellow"... ai-yi-yi!  I better stop this commentary now, or another earwig shall take up residence in my brain.

O tra-la-la-lally
Come down to the valley!
O tra-la-la-lay
Come when you may!
O come as you are,
And forth do not sally:
For it's a sad morning
That sees you away!
