Ballad of Aiglos
04:34
|
|||
In the hands of the last high king
among exiles of middle-earth
From the sea to the mountains I carved a free path
after the War of Wrath
The first to distrust the deceiver of men
my wise master a radiant star
Alone of Eldar forbid Annatar
Wise king lose not thy grip on me
For my blade more pure than snowfall
and my sting is keener than ice
hold me fast among thine enemies
For I am the Spear - cold Aiglos
I saw Westernesse fall beneath the wave
and the last of the faithful sail forth
With Gondor and Arnor I joined in the war
a last alliance of elves and men
I bring cold death to Orc and Goblin
From the gathering at Amon Sul
We saw victory's ransom on the battle plain
Seven years of siege at dark tower
For my blade more pure than snowfall
and my sting is keener than ice
hold me fast among thine enemies
For I am the Spear - cold Aiglos
In the hands of the last high king
among brave Dwarves, Elves and Men
Though against me, none could withstand
I fell from Gil-galad's hand
For my blade was brighter than snowfall
and my sting was keener than ice
he held me fast among his enemies
For I am the Spear - cold Aiglos

Swordsman of the Sky
04:03
|

I met a traveller upon the greenway road
one night on the way to bree
From under hooded cloak
glowing ember and his pipe smoke
he called and hailed to me
Just then a dusk-wolf howled
and I feared brigands on the road
and he looked fair enough to me
So I drew my pony up
and asked the rider his name
and this is what he said to me
I'm just a minstrel with a wandering horse
but not all who wander are lost
I follow those stars there you see on high
Thats the swordsman of the sky
You see a war is coming on these gentle lands
long is the reach of dark hands
I've come to warn your folk
these roads will soon be weary
beneath marching boots of evil enemies
The strangers' war-speech
kindled dread in my soul
like the burning embers
in his pipe-bowl
Something in his voice
like a call to fate
I asked him if it was too late
To warn of what will be
Can our folk remain free?
And this is what he said to me
I'm just a minstrel with a wandering horse
but not all who wander are lost
I could sing to you a great prophecy
from beyond the western seas
But stand fast defend the people free
the last battle is yet to be
I sing of hope in the
shining belt on high
Seek the swordsman of the sky
