Far over, the Misty Mountains rise 

Leave us standing upon the height 

What was before, we see once more 

Is our kingdom, a distant light 



Fiery mountain beneath a moon 

The words unspoken: we'll be there soon 

For home, a song that echoes on 

And all who find us will know the tune 



Some folk we never forget 

Some kind we never forgive 

Haven't seen the back of us yet 

We will fight as long as we live 



All eyes on the hidden way 

To the Lonely Mountain pave 

We'll ride in the gathering storm 

Until we get our long forgotten gold 



We lay under the Misty Mountains cold 

In slumbers deep and dreams of gold 

We must awake, our lives to make 

And in the darkness, a torch we hold 



From long ago, when lanterns burned 

Until this day, our hearts we yearned 

Her fate unknown, the Arkenstone 

What was stolen must be returned 



We must awake and make the day 

To find our song for heart and soul 



Some folk we never forget 

Some kind we never forgive 

Haven't seen the end of it yet 

We'll fight as long as we live 



All eyes on the hidden door 

To the Lonely Mountain borne 

We'll ride in the gathering storm 

'Til we get our long forgotten gold 



Far away, the Misty Mountains cold
