A king there was in days of old
Before the darkness grey and cold
Upon his throne the runes were bright
His helm was shining in the night
There was once a long, long time ago
Before the sun and moon we know
When hills were young and mountains tall
before the night and shadowfall
A king there was in the dawn of days
His fame and glory still ablaze
His deeds became song and tale
Legends speak of might and fame
His halls were dark, tall and grim
Above the forest, glade and hill
The glory was carved in stone
Before the night and shadowfall
A king there was on carven throne
With runes of power upon the door
His halls were dark, tall and grim
Above the forest, glade and hill
But long ago the beast has come
Wings of darkness covered the sun
From the deep and dark, fire and flame
The curse of yore, the durin's bane
