The Dúnedain



Who are those rugged men wandering the Wilds?

They walk among the woods, under the stars

Fighting against enemies foul

Struggling in their own wars

 

You can see them if your eyes are keen

In many troubles they have been

A lot of blood they have seen

Of their enemies and their own kin

 

They hail from the lands of ancient Arnor

They guard the ancient ruins and Eriador

Maybe it is hard to believe

But they are there, just not to be seen

 

Strong hands holding the sword

Swift fingers on the bowstring

Bent back under the weight

Guarding us from the height

 

Bloodline of the ancient Númenor

Noble and hardy

The followers of Elendil

Tough and mighty

 

They should be thriving

In the realm of the North

Still exiles in the woods

Wandering back and forth.

 

Now they just silently wait for their king

Is his return already afoot?

The Rangers just wait

In their halls of wood.
