Passed the lonely Mountain bare And swept above the dragon's lair: There black and dark lay boulders stark Left the world and took its flight Over the wide seas of the night. The moon set sail upon the gale, And stars were fanned to leaping light. The moon set sail upn the glade Over old hills and mountains bare... Carven stone The king under the mountain and ancient hall His hands are rich by gems and gold The king under the mountain and carven stone We shall fight for the king forevermore! The wind was on the withered heath, But in the forest stirred no leaf: There shadows lay by night and day, And dark things silent crept beneath. The wind came down from mountains cold, And like a tide it roared and rolled; The branches groaned, the forest moaned, And leaves were laid upon the mould.
