Rivendell - Th9oden lyrics

rate me

From dark Dunharrow in the dim morning<br />

With thane and captain rode Thengel's son:<br />

To Edoras he came, the ancient halls<br />

<br />

Of the Mark-wardens mist-enshrouded; <br />

Golden timbers were in gloom mantled.<br />

Farewell he bade to his free people, <br />

Hearth and high-seat, and the hallowed places, <br />

<br />

Fate before him. Fealty kept he; <br />

Oaths he had taken, all fulfilled them.<br />

Forth rode Théoden. five nights and days<br />

East and onward rode the Eorlingas<br />

Through Folde and Fenmarch and the Firienwood, <br />

<br />

Six thousand spears to Sunlending, <br />

Mundburg the mighty under Mindolluin, <br />

Sea-kings; city in the South-kingdom<br />

Foe-beleaguered, fire-encircled.<br />

<br />

Doom drove them on. Darkness took them, <br />

Horse and horseman; hoofbeats afar<br />

Sank into silence; so the songs tell us.</
