Note 2 her: We already wrote this and was actually waiting for someone to request it.

Note 2 all: This is a mixture of a bunch of battles from ROTK, the book. Oh, and we don't own.

'Twas the night before the battle

And all through Middle-earth

Not even a Halfling showed signs of mirth

The forces were arrayed from Gondor to Rohan

In hopes that the battle would soon be won

The Hobbits were stuck with a woman and pyro

While their cousin was being misled quite so

And Aragorn in his armour and I in my cap

Had just settled down to look at our map

When out on the field there arose such a clatter

I sprang from my seat to see what was the matter

Away to Shadowfax I flew like a flash

Tore across the field at a mad dash

The sun on the breast of the horizon

Was barely seen (thanks to Sauron)

When, what to my wandering eyes should appear

Sauron's mouth wearing an evil sneer

With a little servant so lively and quick

I knew in a moment I was going to be sick

More rapid than eagles, the forces I cried

Unto every name that had allied

"Now Gondor! Now Rohan! Nor Eomer! Now Eowyn!

On Merry! On Pippin! On Beregund and Theoden!

To the top of the horses; get ready to brawl

Now dash away, dash away, dash away all!"

As dry leaves before the wild hurricane fly

When they meet with an obstacle, look to the sky

So up to the orc army they ran

With swords ready and arrows at hand

And then in the blazes, I heard a small noise

The anxiousness of all the young boys

As I turned my head, and was looking around

Down the field Sauron's mouth came with a bound

We were dressed in all amour from our heads to our feet

And our hair was all tarnished from ashes and sleet

A bundle of arrows Legolas had on his back

With three swords included in his pack

The stars how they dimmed! The night was not merry

Our cheeks were like roses, our noses like cherries

Sauron's mouth ordered an assault by bow

Hoping, for sure, the king didn't know

The stump of my pipe was still tight in my teeth

And the smoke encircled my head like a wreath

Now wasn't the time for me to be smoking

The battle wasn't fun- and I'm not joking!

It was cold and dreary, with help from one elf

And I lost all hope, in spite of myself

Aragorn looked at me and nodded his head

And gave me to know I had nothing to dread

He spoke not a word, but went onto battle

Fearing not the sounds like dying cattle

And raising a finger up in the air

He ordered an attack from upon his mare

We sprang into action

And lost more than a fraction

We charged on so bravely

But lost men gravely

The battle was won

Yet the war was not done

Happy battle to all

And to all a good fight!
