Song of Durin

Lyrics

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 shadow of his head
 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
 Til' Durin wakes again from sleep
