I wrote this song on the 7th of January 2013, inspired by this heartbreaking drawing by Lanimalu:

Lyrics:

Balin’s Lament

By the foot of the mountain
Two children at play
Brothers as different
As night and as day
When twilight comes creeping
They get into their beds
And I tuck in their blankets
And kiss their sweet heads

For the eyes of children
Will never grow old
And the stone is black and cold

By the foot of the mountain
Now with daggers and bow
Brothers in arms into battle will go
At night by the campfire
They’ll laugh and they’ll sing
While my thoughts are on
What tomorrow may bring

For the eyes of children
Will never grow old
And the stone is black and cold

By the foot of the mountain
Two brothers now lay
Their weapons in hand
And their gaze far away
Once more, for the last time
I kiss their sweet heads
As I weep for the children
I once tucked into bed

Balin's Lament

Vòng xoay cuộc sống vẫn cứ luân hồi,
Quay mãi không bao giờ ngừng lại.
Những nhịp đập của trái tim vẫn luôn khao khát
Cho âm thanh của những tâm hồn đang hát.

Và màn đêm tràn ngập những tiếng khóc
Bởi những lầm lỗi trong quá khứ chúng ta gây ra.
Nhưng, ngày mai mãi mãi là của chúng ta,
Ngày mai tương lai sẽ được mở ra.

Hãy ngước lên và nhìn về phía vầng hào quang,
Nơi mà vòng tròn của cuộc sống được vẽ nên,
Ngắm nhìn một câu chuyện không bao giờ kết thúc
Hãy cùng tôi đến với cánh cổng của bình minh.

Và bàn tay của ai đó đang đưa lên,
Phải chăng là mặt trời trên biển gợn sóng?
Quyền năng mà vẫn luôn làm ta kinh ngạc
Ta ngắm nhìn, nhưng có bao giờ ta thực sự thấy điều đó?

Ai đã gieo nên hạt giống của sự sống,
Ai đã tô điểm cho cánh đồng ngô?
Ai đã nhào nặn tôi trở nên "tôi" như bây giờ
Trước khi vạn vật được sinh ra?

Hãy ngước lên và nhìn về phía vầng hào quang,
Nơi mà vòng tròn của cuộc sống được vẽ nên,
Ngắm nhìn một câu chuyện không bao giờ kết thúc
Hãy cùng tôi đến với cánh cổng của bình minh.

Hãy ngước lên và nhìn về phía vầng hào quang,
Nơi mà vòng tròn của cuộc sống được vẽ nên,
Ngắm nhìn một câu chuyện không bao giờ kết thúc
Hãy cùng tôi đến với cánh cổng của bình minh.

Hãy ngước lên và nhìn về phía vầng hào quang,
Nơi mà vòng tròn của cuộc sống được vẽ nên,
Ngắm nhìn một câu chuyện không bao giờ kết thúc
Hãy cùng tôi đến với cánh cổng của bình minh.

"In the Halls of Our Fathers", or "Thorin's Farewell" which was it's working title, is a song I wrote shortly after Easter, and I've been editing and revising it ever since. Only now (May 14th 2014) am I happy with how the lyrics turned out. This is actually the very first recording I have ever done of it, done in one take with no editing (which is rather rare for me, as I usually do several takes with a lot of editing before I'm happy with it), so it's practically a live version. I guess I'm just really eager to share it with you all! ^_^

Lyrics

In the Halls of Our Fathers
(Thorin's Farewell)

Lift your gaze
For someone so small
You had a bravery
That baffled us all
And in your reluctance
You found in your heart
The kindness to see through
A rough-cut facade

And the road lay before you
So frightful and new
But you joined our company
As one of a few
To share an adventure
And through the world roam
To the Halls of our Fathers
Our home

Lift you head
For all you have learned
You found your courage
When everything burned
In our darkest hour
To this ragged crew
Your heart remained loyal
And your spirit true

And the road lies behind you
The world lies ahead
Through woodland and mountain
And battle it lead
Together we stand now
Midst pillars of yore
In the Halls of our Fathers
Once more

Lift your hand
And let it clasp mine
I need your forgiveness
Before it is time
Thief I once called you
But you are my friend
And the last to embrace me
Here at the end

For my road has ended
So bid me farewell
And remember me kindly
In stories you'll tell
And lay me to rest
When my last breath has passed
In the Halls of our Fathers 
At last


In The Halls Of Our Fathers

This poured into my notebook while sitting at a café in Dublin today (18th of July 2014) and to make sure I wouldn't lose the melody, I made quick recording on my mobile phone. In spite of it's flaws, I loved how the recording somehow managed to capture the sound of seagulls from outside my window, so I decided to share it in all it's unedited rawness.

Hope you like it!
