Father's Grace Bow to the command And hide your face Reclaim the land For father's grace Of old a splendid capital The city of the stars Embattled and abandoned now Scattered with scars The stone bridge and the Dome of Stars In ruins now they lied The greatest Seeing-stone was lost When kinship denied Bow to the command And hide your face Reclaim the land For father's grace No love has ever crossed his path No fealty he evoked For silent deeds have been his choice No sweetness in his voice Embittered by his father's words As struck by enemy spears The warlord has to face his doom Hopeless and drear From the top of the ivory tower His father meets his own end You know, pride comes before a fall You better understand Bow to the command And hide your face Reclaim the land For father's grace

Into The Valley Of Death Once in a far Northern land A battle not fought to the end By the Enemy’s evil deceit A victory turned to defeat Unacceptable insult for the warlord’s pride Open wound that just delayed the final fight Into the valley of death Furious and stern Against the knight of black breath Never to return Mocked and challenged the young king accepts and rides Towards the tower where dark sorcery resides Broken the line of the kings The stewards now rule in their stead Until the king returns, they sing A shadow who walks with the dead Into the valley of death Prophecy unheard Under the yoke of black breath Peace is disturbed

Revelation At Henneth Annûn / Evil Descends Second-born Hardened and cold Captain of the cloaked On his own Battle-tried his sword Doomed to walk in the shades Revelation at Henneth Annûn Perceiver of (pending) doom Behold - a wise warrior's worth Ancient lore Afar from the sea In his nature reborn Noble and wise As of old kingly guise Yet condemned to disgrace Revelation at Henneth Annûn Delayer of doom Unfold - a wise warrior's worth Osgiliath burns In gruesome defeat The warlord returns To the City of the Tree Revelation at Henneth Annûn Preventer of doom Untold - a wise warrior's worth Soon the king of the city of death will rise On his head a crown of black steel He torments his servants and foes alike Suffocating breath that never heals Now he comes forth on black wings of fear Darkened clouds are gathering around him Dreams of terror awake in all men's hearts As evil descents, cold and grim Revelation At Henneth Annûn Revelation At Henneth Annûn

This is our (cover) version of the song "Cirith Ungol" from the album "In the Rectory of the Bizarre Reverend" (2002) by the Finnish doom/ heavy metal band Reverend Bizarre. You can go google the lyrics yourself or - even better - buy their albums and read the lyrics in there. They're really good. So is their music.
