An Elven Maiden Sits and Sighs
(To the tune of "What Child Is This")
An Elven maiden sits and sighs,
While darkness gathers and Wargs do cry,
Her love is off on a great quest,
To see that goodness will resist.
The Stars now are dull and dim,
And though we're apart I still think of him,
Says the maiden to herself
While evil encloses 'round the elf,
The hand of temptation glows quite bright,
For those who wander within the night,
And though the goodness has faded away,
There's still some few who keep it today.
The Stars now are dull and dim,
And though we're apart I still think of him,
Says the maiden to herself
While evil encloses 'round the elf,
The night grows cold as her love does run,
Over the field and towards the sun,
The moon fades and sun shines through
As flowers revive in the glistening dew.
The Stars now are dull and dim,
And though we're apart I still think of him,
Says the maiden to herself
While evil encloses 'round the elf,
No good can come while the ring exists,
Which is why the company still persists,
Over the Mountains and to the Gates,
There the last Great War awaits.
The Stars now are dull and dim,
And though we're apart I still think of him,
Says the maiden to herself
While evil encloses 'round the elf,
An Elven maiden sits and sighs,
As darkness gathers and Wargs do cry,
She takes a breath and closes her eyes,
And still she can see her wonderful guy.
The Stars now are dull and dim,
And though we're apart I still think of him,
Says the maiden to herself
While evil encloses 'round the elf,
A long, long wait I must endure,
To see my love and my hope secure,
Darkness now fades away,
And now I cry no more.
