Helms Deep Lyrics

White hand of Saurauman calls to arms,
Scorching the village, Burning the farms

Women and children to the keep,
Brothers of Rohan... To Helms Dep
The calling of man,
Stand side by side,
Earth will fall and burn,
Or Rohan will ride,

Farmers, Ferriers, Stableboys,
Now fighters old and new,
Shoulder to shoulder we will stand,
And see the red-dawn through

We've c**led fell deeds from battles past,
We shall defend these walls
Ten thousand come,
Ten thousand fall,
Destroy the orcs
Destroy them all

Blood red pools,
With black tar,
These gates have to hold

Horns will sound,
One last time
To death or glory ride.
The walls are breached,
The keep will fall

Leave the dead,
The wounded save

Hope has forsaken these lands,
So retreat to the caves

Swords will clash & shields will splinter,
Manflesh shall not feast,
At first light on the fifth day,
At dawn, Look to the east
