Lyrics & Translation

[English]

are we lost no I think we are

sh Mary what I'm

hungry there's something down

there it's

Gollum Gollum he's been following us for

three days

he escaped The Dungeons of Barak du

escaped or was set loose and now the

ring has drawn him

here he will never be rid of his need

for it he hates and loves the

ring as he hates and loves himself

smeal's life sad

story yes spol he was once called

before the ring found

him before it drove him

mad it's a Pity Bilbo didn't kill him

when he had the chance

pity it was pity that stayed Bilbo's

hand many that live deserve death and

some that die deserve

life can you give it to them

FR do not be too eager to deal on death

and

judgment even the very wise can see all

ends my heart tells me that Gollum has

some part to play yet for good or

ill before this is

over the pity of belbo May rule the fate

of

[Music]

men I wish the ring had never come to me

I wish none of this had happened so do

all who live to see such times but that

is not for them to decide all we have to

decide is what to do with the time that

is given to

us there are other forces at work in

this world fra besides the will of evil

bbau was meant to find the ring in which

case you also Were Meant to have it and

that is an encouraging thought
