[00:22.07] |
When the awesome day of great thunder came |
[00:27.65] |
And the sound of trumpets shook the sky |
[00:31.83] |
They say that Beleriand was all ablaze |
[00:35.74] |
And that tongues of fire flew up high |
[00:39.83] |
And the white host of Valinor went east |
[00:43.31] |
Beauty and terror together marched |
[00:46.38] |
To the battle of long-delayed revenge |
[00:50.30] |
And by furious flames the land was parched |
[00:57.33] |
|
[01:18.04] |
They say that the Earth trembled under their feet |
[01:23.45] |
In the hour of reckoning and war |
[01:26.25] |
And their weapons cast a strong blinding sheen |
[01:31.02] |
And the furtive darkness they pierced and tore |
[01:38.74] |
|
[01:51.97] |
Assailed by fear |
[01:55.25] |
And strange doubt, he quailed |
[01:58.51] |
In front of what he could not behold |
[02:05.42] |
|
[02:21.25] |
And in despair |
[02:23.86] |
Launched the last assault |
[02:27.11] |
From the infernal lairs |
[02:30.22] |
Of his deep stronghold |
[02:33.88] |
|
[03:29.34] |
From the chasms and hellish pits |
[03:38.79] |
Of the fell foe that ever sits |
[03:48.08] |
On the hard throne of tyranny |
[03:52.91] |
Deadliest horror of history |
[03:56.68] |
Dismal flashes and burning hail |
[04:00.62] |
Wrecking raiders that scourge and flail |
[04:04.34] |
Dreadful clashes that wring the sky |
[04:07.20] |
In the last effort to defy |
[04:10.76] |
From the oceans of immense space |
[04:14.88] |
Where the day and the night embrace |
[04:18.14] |
Sweeping, wild winds of victory |
[04:21.24] |
Irresistible symphony |
[04:27.15] |
In the hour of flaming truth |
[04:31.49] |
In the battle of wrath and ruth |
[04:37.74] |
The star-vessel lit up the air |
[04:41.53] |
At the summit of heaven's stair |
[04:44.14] |
Fiery spirits in birdlike form |
[04:46.72] |
Warring eagles against the storm |
[04:55.13] |
Towering struggle until the end |
[04:58.14] |
Iron talons that tear and rend |
[05:04.35] |
|
[05:51.70] |
See Ancalagon's last onslaught |
[05:55.93] |
But with Earendil Fate's hand fought |
[05:58.21] |
And the black heinous flame grew higher |
[06:00.76] |
Until fire was killed by fire |
[06:03.44] |
Floundering |
[06:05.50] |
Elation |
[06:08.29] |
Collapse |
[06:09.66] |
Triumph |
[06:15.00] |
|
[07:06.90] |
When by the hands of justice |
[07:09.57] |
The Silmarils were freed |
[07:12.88] |
Shining pure and unsullied |
[07:16.79] |
Each like a radiant bead |
[07:19.91] |
Feanor's sons did not yield |
[07:23.33] |
Anguished and yet strong-willed |
[07:26.80] |
Weary and still unbending |
[07:30.22] |
With ancient hardness filled |
[07:33.88] |
Hearing the herald's message |
[07:38.02] |
Refusing to give in |
[07:41.04] |
Defying the supreme will |
[07:44.39] |
Victims of their own sin |
[07:47.77] |
Each of them seized a bright gem |
[07:52.16] |
Neither could bear the pain |
[07:55.34] |
With the blind slaves of murder |
[08:01.69] |
The gems could not remain |
[08:05.79] |
One in the fires of deep earth |
[08:08.43] |
One in the unfathomed sea |
[08:11.15] |
One in the airs of heaven |
[08:15.00] |
Voyaging high and free |
[08:18.47] |
One in the fires of deep earth |
[08:21.77] |
One in the unfathomed sea |
[08:25.06] |
One in the airs of heaven |
[08:28.70] |
Voyaging high and free |
[08:32.62] |
They shall not come together |
[08:36.75] |
While the great Powers reign |
[08:39.79] |
Unless the world is broken |
[08:42.59] |
And Earth is made again |
[08:50.32] |
