~~We added English and Spanish subtitles in the closed captions for those who want to sing along.~~
We do not own anything related to J.R.R. Tolkien's, "The Hobbit" or Peter Jackson's films, apart from this particular arrangement and recording.
This is a cover of J.R.R. Tolkien's "Far Over the Misty Mountains Cold." Melody written by David Donaldson, David Long, Steve Roche and Janet Roddick found in Howard Shore's movie soundtrack.
We hope you really enjoy this. It took a while to edit. Just trying to make something entertaining.
My brother arranged this piece and we thought it would be neat to sing more of the verses of J.R.R. Tolkien's "Misty Mountains" poem than they did in the movie.
It is an amazing story!
Three of my brothers and my dad sang. I recorded and mixed it. There are a total of 10 singing tracks.

Lyrics:
Far over the misty mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away ere break of day
To seek the pale enchanted gold.
The dwarves of yore made mighty spells,
While hammers fell like ringing bells
In places deep, where dark things sleep,
In hollow halls beneath the fells.
For ancient king and elvish lord
There many a gleaming golden hoard
They shaped and wrought, and light they caught
To hide in gems on hilt of sword.
On silver necklaces they strung
The flowering stars, on crowns they hung
The dragon-fire, in twisted wire
They meshed the light of moon and sun.
Far over the misty mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away, ere break of day,
To claim our long-forgotten gold.
Goblets they carved there for themselves
And harps of gold; where no man delves
There lay they long, and many a song
Was sung unheard by men or elves.
The pines were roaring on the height,
The winds were moaning in the night.
The fire was red, it flaming spread;
The trees like torches blazed with light.
The bells were ringing in the dale
And men looked up with faces pale;
The dragon's ire more fierce than fire
Laid low their towers and houses frail.
The mountain smoked beneath the moon;
The dwarves they heard the tramp of doom.
They fled their hall to dying fall
Beneath his feet, beneath the moon.
Far over the misty mountains grim
To dungeons deep and caverns dim
We must away, ere break of day,
To win our harps and gold from him!
Far over the misty mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old...

Something I've always found interesting about this song; it never directly speaks about Smaug. It skirts around him, talking about the effect he has on the world and the halls, but shies away from speaking his name or describing him. It's like the song itself is frightened of the dragon.

The "evil-doer" gets a rise out of hearing his name in the news. Its an additional motivation for his despicable acts.

[@munku121]

JRR Tolkien was a genius author. Not only did he come up with the world of Middle-earth and its races, he came up with the languages that they spoke. Fully realized and written languages. Elfish, Dwarfish, Black Speech, Rohirric, and several others. That, and he came up with incredible lore for his world. Lord of the Rings is the gold standard of Fantasy genre books.

[@TheStraightestWhitest]

Yeah as a hobby writer working on a medieval fiction, his work is almost impossible to comprehend. Not the work itself, but how he did it, where he got the inspiration. He's the Mozart of literature, and that's perhaps downplaying him. Even crazier when you consider he felt he hadn't done 20% of what he wanted to do. He was of a mind to re-do everything he'd already done, and had at least two more stories in mind. What an absolute legend!

[@plymouth5714]

Hi Just Me. If I remember correctly J R R was an expert on the Anglo Saxon history and language. Apparently his inspiration for the Rohirrim was his sense of loss at the fall of the Anglo Saxons after Hastings. He always maintained that if the Anglo Saxons had embraced cavalry as the Celts had before them instead of being a purely infantry based society they would have beaten the Normans and their culture would have survived. The Rohirrim are the Anglo Saxons as J R R would have loved them to be.

[@TheStraightestWhitest]

@@plymouth5714 Epic, didn't know. Thanks for the info!

[@bipel8810]

When you say elfish you mean sindarin and quenya

[@michaelrue1400]

Actually, he developed the languages first, then created the world in which those languages would be spoken. The stories rose out of that.

"It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be." This quote by Albus Dumbledore perfectly captures Bilblo Baggins's journey with Gandalf and the Dwarves

[@dianawilliams6869]

I love how in the book they explain all their story in this amazing song and Bilbo is like "wait, what's the mission??" and Thorin is like: "Didn't you listen to our song? =T"

[@NicholasGeschke]

This is beautiful. It's exactly like how Tolkien would have imagined it I think: Dwarves were not just the surly, grim race often portrayed in other works. They were also brave, proud, honorable and deeply loved beautiful things. Masterful craftsmen, masons and smiths, they could produce wondrous works of art from stone. Although fearsome warriors, the Dwarves were also fast in friendship and love. This is exemplified by Gimli's friendship with Legolas. Though initially cold to each other, they grow to be the best of friends. Furthermore, after the Battle of Helm's Deep, Gimli goes to great lengths to describe the beauty of the caves he beheld while in its depths, which deeply impresses the elf. In the later workings, Tolkien writes that Gimli went with Legolas to the Undying Lands - the only Dwarf to do so.

DEFINETLY..Though I may have mixed feelings about the hoobit I loved the portrayal of Dwarves...

[@JonathanXLindqviust]

The Dwarfs, like the Elves, are fading from Middle Earth. An analogy of how mystisicm, frontiers and the "unknown" magical places are fading from the earth. The Elves, take their fate with grace and choose to migrate to the old lands (where none other may go but gods and elves). That or die and fade in Middle Earth. The Dwarfs, however, are a much prouder species. They take their fate in a much more melancholy but heroic way. They continue like old, they always seek to regain their lost glory and power, even if they know they never can. They always look for caverns old, lost gold and glory, lost homes and lost legacies. The great tragedy here is that they know it's futile, but why do they do it? Easy. Why not? It's who they are, they are dwarfs. As they sing this old song in the movie, this is shown, because even though it reminds them of a lost capitol and a lost eon of dwarf supremacy: They all stand up. They're stout, but melancholy at the song. They all show their honour and pride of who they were, who they are. Dwarfs. It's a weird thing really, their dungeons and caverns will in due time be their mausoleum as they fade. As the last dwarfs die out in their magnificent halls and prodigious caverns. They're in fact seeking back not to lost glory, but to rest, to be forgotten with their gold, to remember and be remembered for their glory days. I guess that's just how badass dwarfs are. As long as the last one draws breath, there'll be a proud, stout, angry, alcoholic, pipe-smoking, goblin-slaughtering dwarf. Humming this song in memory of old, regretting nothing but still strangely sad and proud at his legacy left. All things fade. Dwarfs just do it much better than any other ever could.  Great work on the song.

the genius of the mind of Tolkein is unparalleled. he spoke fluently 35 different languages and was a man of deep and abiding Faith. There will one day be more men like him but not until we have a great deal of sufffering.

Farewell we call to hearth and hall Though wind may blow and rain may fall...

This is from the LOTR: Fellowship book: It's sung the same way. Frodo comes up with the last line on the spot: Farewell we call to hearth and hall! Though wind may blow and rain may fall, We must away ere break of day Far over the wood and mountain tall. To Rivendell, where Elves yet dwell In glades beneath the misty fell, Through moor and waste we ride in haste, And whither then we cannot tell. With foes ahead, behind us dread, Beneath the sky shall be our bed, Until at last our toil be passed, Our journey done, our errand sped. We must away! We must away! We ride before the break of day!

Two new verses recently found scribbled on the back of a shopping list and used as a book mark in one of J.R.R.Tolkien's cook books; Far beneath the lonely mountain steep From jeweled throne to iron keep Our Brothers sang as hammers rang When will our people cease to weep The dragon stirs in the gloom He takes to wing to meet his doom The bowman’s dart flies to its mark The worm falls deep in waters dark

I really adore the aesthetic of dwarves in fantasy. The vast underground cities, the huge statues, the mining, the digging; the intricate metalwork and gems; the heavy weapons and armour; the sombre thoughtfulness and unfathomable abyss of their world; the kingdoms of earth and fire... I hate it when they're shown as bumbling fat jolly drunkards in some universes (like in WoW). And this song is practically *_oozing_* the dwarven aesthetics. So good.

Reminds me of when I walked an hour through Boston in the middle of the night to see the USS Constitution.

I feel sorry for the dwarves. They had a civilization without equal, easily rivaling if not dwarfing the elven kingdoms, and they lost so much of it, because of monsters they could not possibly know would come. Smaug, Balrog... poor guys...

Rather interesting. The Dwarves were rather like the Jews, seeking to return, in the case of the Dwarves to Erebor, in the case of Jews, to Jerusalem.

[@brjkoster]

DonMeaker dont forget germany

[@fromolwyoming]

Truth be told, Moria and Erebor (The Lonely Mountain) were held by only 1 group of Dwarves, known as The Longbeards or Durin's Folk (named so because of a series of kings they had). There are actually 6 more Dwarven clans spread throughout Middle Earth. Tolkien just never expanded on them for whatever reason.

[@DonMeaker]

bram koster Germany was represented by the Goblins in the Hobbit. Tolkien was very impressed by the German trenches that he and his men got to occupy, very roomy, dry and protective. Of course the firing ports pointed the wrong way.

[@amirtabor5989]

DonMeaker This would be based on the fallacy that the LotR is a reference to WWII, and the European conflict. While it is true that the book was written under the shadow of war, and that undoubtedly affected Tolkein's mood, I myself have held and read an official copy of LotR with a forward by the man himself saying that he was aware of this rumor, and DENYING IT. He said that the war had literally nothing to do with the story, that he had conceived the storyline prior to the war, and he refuted all suggestions that he was writing wartime propaganda. The goblins are NOT Germany, the Hobbits are NOT England, Sauron is NOT Hitler.
