dwarrowdelf - far over the misty mountains cold lyrics

Loading...

far over the misty mountains cold
to dungeons deep and caverns old
we must away ere break of day
to seek the pale enchanted gold

the dwarves of yore made mighty spells
while hammers fell like ringing bells
in places deep, where dark things sleep
in hollow halls beneath the fells

for ancient king and elvish lord
there many a gleaming golden h–rd
they shaped and wrought, and light they caught
to hide in gems on hilt of sword

on silver necklaces they strung
the flowering stars, on crowns they hung
the dragon-fire, in twisted wire
they meshed the light of moon and sun

far over the misty mountains cold
to dungeons deep and caverns old
we must away, ere break of day
to claim our long-forgotten gold

goblets they carved there for themselves
and harps of gold; where no man delves
there lay they long, and many a song
was sung unheard by men or elves

the pines were roaring on the height
the winds were moaning in the night
the fire was red, it flaming spread;
the trees like torches blazed with light

the bells were ringing in the dale
and men they looked up with faces pale;
the dragon’s ire more fierce than fire
laid low their towers and houses frail

the mountain smoked beneath the moon;
the dwarves they heard the tramp of doom
they fled their hall to dying fall
beneath his feet, beneath the moon

far over the misty mountains grim
to dungeons deep and caverns dim
we must away, ere break of day
to win our harps and gold from him!

the wind was on the withered heath
but in the forest stirred no leaf:
there shadows lay be night or day
and dark things silent crept beneath

the wind came down from mountains cold
and like a tide it roared and rolled;
the branches groaned, the forest moaned
and leaves were laid upon the mould

the wind went on from west to east;
all movement in the forest ceased
but shrill and harsh across the marsh
its whistling voices were released

the gr-sses hissed, their t-ssels bent
the reeds were rattling–on it went
o’er shaken pool under heavens cool
where racing clouds were torn and rent

it p-ssed the lonely mountain bare
and swept above the dragon’s lair:
there black and dark lay boulders stark
and flying smoke was in the air

it left the world and took its flight
over the wide seas of the night
the moon set sail upon the gale
and stars were fanned to leaping light

under the mountain dark and tall
the king has come unto his hall!
his foe is dead, the worm of dread
and ever so his foes shall fall

the sword is sharp, the spear is long
the arrow swift, the gate is strong;
the heart is bold that looks on gold;
the dwarves no more shall suffer wrong
