Khazad-dûm 04:07
Hidden 'neath the Misty Mountains An ancient hall stands proud Glory of the Dwarven kingdom Mining jewels and mithril from the ground The greatest smiths in Middle-Earth Forging arms for lords of war Shining brightly in the darkness But now, their hammers ring no more What was once a place of honor, Now a bleak and empty tomb The bodies of our kinsmen lying where they fell In the great halls of Khazad-dûm Walls glimmering by torch-light Silver veins reflecting bright Deeds carved into pillars of stone We shall one day reclaim our home! Malt beer, and ripe meat off the bone Feasting in our glorious mountain home Warriors of Moria condemned to a brutal fate They delved to deep into the earth and found evil lying in wait! "The Dwarves delved to greedily and too deep. You know what they awoke in the darkness... Shadow and flame!"

Since the days of the Deathless, we've mined here deep Beneath the mountain Celebdil by the Mirrormere Centuries passed in prosperity But the monster of Morgoth forced us to leave A foul creature emerged from the depths Evil rising from the ground Father and son met it in battle And both were stricken down A terror without a name It came to be known as Durin's Bane A demon of shadow and flame At grave cost Khazad-dûm would be reclaimed Durin and Náin were slain by the beast The crown passed to Thráin, a lost people to lead He journeyed east through land of man and elf Leaving behind the throne of Dwarrowdelf A heavy burden to bear Across countless miles they fared The fate of his people in his hands Searching for a new homeland To the Lonely Mountain they came Not yet a place of fame The Arkenstone he claimed The symbol of the Durin name

Erebor 03:12
Once long ago, we ruled far below The Lonely Mountain; another lost home The wrath of Durin's bane drove us away But the home of the Dwarves would once again fall prey Thráin took refuge at Erebor The glory of the Dwarves would be known once more A stronghold full of riches, all a king could desire Until one day, it fell to dragon-fire. The king under the mountain he fell on that day No man woman or child was spared from the flames! We've suffered this before, and we will survive again Beaten but not broken is the line of Durin!
