about

A song about Balin's journey to reclaim Moria after the Lonely Mountain was retaken, and Smaug and Thorin perished.

lyrics

(Verse 1)
Our boots tread upon earth grass and stone
As we march to our ancient carven home
We reclaimed the mountain and the Arkenstone
Now the halls of Khazad Dum will again be our own

(Chorus)-
We shall stride onward
With a step that never falters
For the Dwarves hold Durin’s Axe again
And we’ll hold it til the end

(Verse 2)
We have known victory and we have known loss
Now we come to the halls of our kin long passed
A city where masterful work was wrought
Where our ancestors stood strong and fought

(Chorus)

(narration)
“...yesterday being the tenth of November Balin, lord of Moria, fell in Dimrill Dale. He went alone to look in Mirrormere. An orc shot him from behind a stone. We slew the orc, but many more came… we rescued Balin’s body..after a sharp battle…we have barred the gates but doubt if…we can hold them long. If there is…no escape it will be a horrible fate to suffer, but I shall hold.

We cannot get out. We cannot get out.”
(Book of Mazarbul, J.R.R. Tolkien)

(final verse)
Like our fathers before us
Our home we will defend
Like our fathers before us
It will be our end
