Hallandor's Song

In Chondalwood, the trees grow strong Nikerymath in the shade, They carry elven blade In Chondalwood, hear the elven song When Hallandor went far beyond He befriended more than elf Befriended dark and blond And looking into himself In Chondalwood, the trees grow strong Nikerymath in the shade, In Chondalwood, hear the elven song They carry elven blade Hallandor a mage of might On the three he built his tower He put behind the fight No longer cared for power In Chondalwood, the trees grow strong Nikerymath in the shade, In Chondalwood, hear the elven song They carry elven blade A ranger wound her path And found his quiet garden She found in him no wrath Their love would only harden In Chondalwood the trees grow strong But voices there grew dark In Chondalwood shades fell long folks of hate put their mark Children grow from golden heart And mage that loves her so Never want to be apart Until the boy would go In Chondalwood the trees grow strong But voices there grew dark In Chondalwood shades fell long folks of hate put their mark Then Hallandor goes in pursuit Fear spread with daughter and mother Their wait and fear acute As time slowly smother In Chondalwood the trees grow old The love have left the wood In Chondalwood the mood is cold Where once a family stood Daughter and mother on the run Dark voices among the trees Black scales we must shun As rapidly we flee In Chondalwood my childhood dreams To darkness quickly grow In Chondalwood the serpent river streams An mother pulled into its flow Night sets in, with falling leaves on the forest floor And so leaves the daughter of Hallandor
