Author's Note: This song is based off of "When that Man is Dead and Gone", a WWII song.
When Sauron is Gone for Good
This is a song I caught Strider singing a fair number of times, typically when he didn't think anyone was paying attention. According to him, it is a favorite around Ranger campfires. This is only a rough translation as the song is originally in Sindarin. Still, you should be able to get an idea of what I mean about Dunedain being bloodthirsty. Then again, I suppose I can't blame them for wanting to kill Sauron.
When Sauron is gone for good
When Sauron is gone for good
We'll stop walking all around
No more fears that we'll be found
When Sauron is gone for good
We'll stop walking through the wood
We'll start living how folks should.
Scout comes riding in one day
Says the has Eye gone away
And rubble's where the tower stood
When Sauron is gone for good
Morgoth, Morgoth, sent us our bane,
Sauron gave pain
Of all of his minions that we have slain
There is no one our swords thirst for more
Than the evil lord of Mordor.
When Sauron is gone for good
When Sauron is gone for good
When we see him good and dead
The people will be no longer dread
When Sauron is gone for good
We'll stop walking through the wood
We'll start living how folks should.
Scout comes riding in one day
Says the has Eye gone away
And rubble's where the tower stood
When Sauron is gone for good
Scout comes riding in one day
Says the has Eye gone away
And rubble's where the tower stood
When Sauron is gone for good
We'll stop walking through the wood
We'll start living how folks should.
