TTT soundtrack lyrics - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Airerûthiel · 03-10-2003, 03:00 PM

On the soundtrack to The Two Towers, there are lyrics available to three songs (a bit poor compared to the five in Fellowship, but still not too bad considering). These are 'The Ents' (which is in Sindarin), 'Gollum's Song' (played over the end credits), and 'The Missing' (translated from Old English and presumably about Éowyn).What I'm asking is this: Which song are the lyrics to 'The Missing' in? I'm pretty sure that The Ents is in either 'Treebeard' (track 10) or 'Isengard Unleashed' (track 17). I don't think that second option is that likely, but if anyone else thinks different, feel free to post. With regards to 'The Missing', I think it may be in 'Breath Of Life' (track 14).If anyone knows where these songs are on the soundtrack, please reply to this message or contact me via PM. Thanks in advance for your help

'The Ents' can be found in the song 'Isengard Unleashed', as can 'Haldir's Lament'. 'The Missing' is featured in the song 'Helm's Deep'. Here are the lyrics:Héo naefre wacode dægréd Tó bisig mid dægeweorcum Ac oft héo wacode sunnanwanung Ðonne nihtciele créap geond móras And on ðaere hwile Héo dréag ðá losinga [3.26] Earla ðinga ðe héo forléas. [3.35] Héo swá oft dréag hire sáwle sincende Héo ne cúðe hire heortan lust.And the translation:'She never watched the morning rising, Too busy with the day's first chores, But oft she would watch the sun's fading, As the cold of night crept across the moors. And in that moment She felt the loss Of everything that had been missed. So used to feeling the spirit sink, She had not felt her own heart's wish.'I hope this helped.<A HREF="http://www.elvish.org/gwaith/movie_soundtrack_ttt.htm" TARGET=_blank>Source</A>[ March 10, 2003: Message edited by: Rynoah, the Overly-Happy ]

I think that "The Missing" is in Helms Deep or The Hornburg?!

I have the lyrics to The Abyss, The Call, Entmoot, The Ents, The Fallen, The Fight, Gollum’s Song, The King and The Missing. If anyone wants them you'll have to give something in return that is related to LotR or anything Tolkien...like documents, mp3's and so forth...I guarantee you will not find these lyrics anywhere else as I got them from an Assistant Producer who worked on 'The Lord of the Rings'.
