The Heart of Fangorn
Whispers of Fangorn: Guardians of Nature in Melodic Harmony
Lyrics
Long before men tread Middle-Earth
Refers to a time long before humans inhabited Middle-Earth
Before the dwarves and elves gave birth
Before dwarves and elves came into existence
There lived a race for the trees' defence
There was a race dedicated to protecting trees
In the heart of Fangorn, there live the Ents
The Ents resided in the heart of Fangorn forest
Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
Chants or vocalizations reflecting Ents' communication or a rhythmic representation of their existence
Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
-Patient farmers they tend the woods
Ents cared for the forest, nurturing it like patient farmers
Gaurdians of stems and of roots
They were guardians, protecting the stems and roots of the trees
The hear the arbors' laments and wails
Ents empathized with the distress of trees, hearing their cries due to axes
From falling axes leaving tearful trails
They witnessed the sorrow caused by the felling of trees
Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
Repetition of the vocalization or chant, possibly emphasizing the enduring nature of Ents' existence
Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
-For Living creatures all roam the land
All living creatures roam the land, but rash judgments lead to careless actions
But hasty judgements make careless hands
Hasty decisions by thoughtless individuals
One thoughtless word from a thoughtless king
A single thoughtless word from a king causes harm to thousands of creatures
A thousand creatures die beneath the trees
Resulting in massive destruction under the trees
Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
Repeated vocalizations, possibly representing the continuing cycle of destruction due to careless actions
Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
-The rivers will flow though their course may change
Nature continues, although its courses may change
The birds are born and will fly away
Life and departure of birds
Men will come and men will go
Humans come and go, but Ents persist
But the Ents remain through the melting snow
Ents endure despite the changing seasons
Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
Repetition of vocalization, perhaps signifying the lasting resilience of the Ents
Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
-Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
-Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
-Long before men tread Middle-Earth
Reiteration of the earlier reference to the distant past
Before the dwarves and elves gave birth
There lived a race for the trees' defence
Describes the ancient race protecting trees in Fangorn forest
In the heart of Fangorn, there live the Ents
Reiterates the dwelling place of the Ents
Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
Repetitive vocalization, potentially emphasizing the enduring presence of Ents amidst changing circumstances
Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
-Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
-Ha-room...Ha-da-ra-room
-Ha-room
