Lyricist:     Composer:



Far over the Misty Mountains rise
Leave us standing upon the heights
What was before, we see once more

Is our kingdom a distant light

Fiery mountain beneath the moon
The words unspoken, we'll be there soon
For home a song that echoes on
And all who find us will know the tune

(Hai jai ja ja)
Some folk we never forget
(Hai jai ja ja)
Some kind we never forgive
(Hai jai ja ja)
Haven't seen the back of us yet
(Hai jai ja ja)
We'll fight as long as we live
(Hai jai ja ja)
All eyes on the hidden door
(Hai jai ja ja)
To the Lonely Mountain borne
(Hai jai ja ja)
We'll ride in the gathering storm
Until we get our long-forgotten gold

We lay under the Misty Mountains cold
In slumbers deep and dreams of gold
We must awake, our lives to make
And in the darkness a torch we hold

From long ago when lanterns burned
Until this day our hearts have yearned
Her fate unknown the Arkenstone
What was stolen must be returned

We must awake and make the day
To find a song for heart and soul

(Hai jai ja ja)
Some folk we never forget
(Hai jai ja ja)
Some kind we never forgive
(Hai jai ja ja)
Haven't seen the end of it yet
(Hai jai ja ja)
We'll fight as long as we live
(Hai jai ja ja)
All eyes on the hidden door
(Hai jai ja ja)
To the Lonely Mountain borne
(Hai jai ja ja)
We'll ride in the gathering storm
Until we get our long-forgotten gold

Far away from Misty Mountains cold...
