colm r. mcguinness - song of durin lyrics
[verse 1: colm r. mcguinness]
the world was young, the mountains green
no stain yet on the moon was seen
no words were laid on stream or stone
when durin woke and walked alone
he named the nameless hills and dells;
he drank from yet untasted wells;
he stooped and looked in mirrormere
and saw a crown of stars appear
as gems upon a silver thread
above the shadows of his head
[verse 2: jonathan young, bobby bass, colm r. mcguinness]
the world was fair, the mountains tall
in elder days before the fall
of mighty kings in nargothrond
and gondolin, who now beyond
the wеstern seas have passеd away:
the world was fair in durin’s day
[verse 3: colm r. mcguinness, jonathan young, bobby bass, all three]
a king he was on carven throne
in many+pillared halls of stone
with golden roof and silver floor
and runes of power upon the door
the light of sun and star and moon
in shining lamps of crystal hewn
undimmed by cloud or shade of night
there shone for ever fair and bright
[verse 4: colm r. mcguinness, jonathan young, bobby bass, all three]
there hammer on the anvil smote
there chisel clove, and graver wrote;
there forged was blade, and bound was hilt;
the delver mined, the mason built
there beryl, pearl, and opal pale
and metal wrought like fishes’ mail
buckler and corslet, axe and sword
and shining spears were laid in h++rd
[verse 5: jonathan young, bobby bass]
unwearied then were durin’s folk;
beneath the mountains music woke:
the harpers harped, the minstrels sang
and at the gates the trumpets rang
[verse 6: colm r. mcguinnes, jonathan young, bobby bass, all three]
the world is grey, the mountains old
the forge’s fire is ashen+cold
no harp is wrung, no hammer falls
the darkness dwells in durin’s halls
the shadow lies upon his tomb
in moria, in khazad+dûm
but still the sunken stars appear
in dark and windless mirrormere;
there lies his crown in water deep
till durin wakes again from sleep
