That the winds will change
At the beginning of the wars against Morgoth the Elves appeared to be in a victorious position, establishing many great kingdoms and prospering in relative peace whilst they kept Angband under siege. Ulmo however, knew that the winds would eventually change and the elves be cast down before Morgoth's might.

He gleams like a star
As Morgoth walked out of Angband's gates clad in his black armour he was said to have stood before Fingolfin like a tower, casting a dark shadow over the High King who gleamed like a star in contrast, clad in his silver mail and wielding his sword Ringil that glittered like ice.

Horror and madness I've seen here
For what I became a king of the lost?
Barren and lifeless the land lies

It lies unknown
The land of mine
A hidden gate
To save us from the shadow fall
The lord of water spoke
In the silence
Words of wisdom
I've seen the end of all
Be aware the storm gets closer

Ulmo was the Vala who took control of the oceans in Arda hence the name "The lord of water". He had foreseen Morgoth's power eventually storming over the elves in the future despite their most valiant efforts to defeat him.
In order to save the elves from this encroaching storm, he visited the Noldor prince Turgon in a dream and guided him to the hidden valley of Tumladen which was previously an unknown land to most beings.
