Doriath

from Of Light and Darkness by Herc

/

lyrics

A blissful time, as thoughts float
Into a tide untroubled
Where beauty’s thriving,
Like the dawn during spring’s morning

(Bridge)
Long was this time of prosperity,
Little were the tales to be told
Now everything is forgotten and perished
Upon the shadow of the war

(Chorus)
She, who devoured all light
In a cloak of darkness she vanished
In the Mountains of Terror, she came
All light and life itself now are banished
He, who cried in despair
Built it anew and fortified his dark lair
And as the reek of death sneaked out from its towers
He set forth to bring war with all of his powers

The land is drawn into twilight
Fear grows in the hearts of men
Echoes, echoes of a desperate cry
Hark! Oh hark, oh hark, the herald of death

(Bridge)

(Chorus)
Great was the battle,
Yet plundered was the land
Many have lost their lives
In this first war of Beleriand
Fenced is the dominion by the spell of Melian
While evil roamed beyond the unseen walls of Doriath
