Peter Hollens Misty Mountains
- Far over the Misty Mountains cold
- To dungeons deep and caverns old
- We must await, ere break of day,
- To find our long forgotten gold.
- 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 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 went on from West to East;
- All movement in the forest ceased,
- But shrill and harsh across the marsh
- Its whistling voices were released.
- Farewell we call to hearth and hall!
- Though wind may blow and rain may fall,
- We must await ere break of day
- Far over wood and mountain tall.
