The Fall Of Gil-Galad

I know that there are people here that know many thing Tolkien wrote but does anyone know in the full The Full Of Gil-Galad? Sam mentions it once in Fellowship and Aragorn doesnt let him finish it because their being pursued. I would really like to know the tale in full.

Thanks

This is as far as I know one of the best and most exact translations of it.

I doubt it as long as it is not to be found anywhere.

Is this the end of your discussion? If so, could we archive this since there really isn't a need for a dead thread to be open?
