Now And For Always - A.R.Rahman, Värttinä, Christopher Nightingale

Sing me a story of Heros of the Shire,

Muddling through, brave and true,

Stubborn as _______ and tough as old briar.

Never too showy or grand.

Year after year they persevere,

Now and for Always.

Hardfoots who planted

and storefol in the ground

bred to enjoy.

slow but sure

Fallowhide blood in your veins makes you proud.

Sturdy and steady they stand.

True to their aim — to stay the same

Now and for Always!

Sit by the fire light’s glow.

Tell us an old tale we know

Tell of adventure strange and rare.

Never to change, ever to share.

Stories we tell will cast their spell,

Now and for Always.

Sing me a story of Frodo and the Ring,

Fearless and bold;

Tired and cold!

A sword at his side, an elf-blade called «Sting,»

Crossing a miserable land.

Wouldn’t retreat, just followed his feet,

Now and for Always!

Sit by the fire light’s glow,

Tell us an old tale we know!

Tell of adventure strange and rare,

Never to change, ever to share.

Stories we tell will cast their spell

Now and for Always!

Sing me a tale of the bravest of them all,

Comrade and guide at my side —

Stout-hearted Sam who wouldn’t let me fall,

Holding my life in his hand.

True to the end, no finer friend

Now and for Always.

Sit by the fire light’s glow…
