THE SOUNDTRACK OF
THE HOBBIT: THE BATTLE OF THE FIVE ARMIES
SONGS & POEMS
Here follows a list of the songs and poems that feature in the score for The Hobbit: The Battle Of The Five Armies.
Please note this is a work in progress, and for the present, I have only provided the lyrics to those that I could find in the digital soundtrack booklet that came with the Special Edition. I have taken the added liberty of providing the lyrics to some of the more obvious English songs and poems that feature in the movie but have not been presented on any of the soundtracks thus far.
I have titled all songs and poems that I could not find an official title for using the format "Music for..." followed by a description of the scene that it features in.
If you have any information regarding the lyrics or the song titles, please see the "About" page for how I can be contacted.

Sindarin & Κhuzdul translation by David Salo
Hae ephadron theri thaur
Îmri zaizi
am na dhû ias fir i ambar
A trehil i ‘alad ‘lân uir tri ‘wilith.
Kûr yamsi tân yamarsi biyê?
Ankakizi ni adâlimê
Ak tathyariya.
I go walking beyond the forest
Take me with you.
Up into the night where the world falls away
And the white light of forever fills the air.
Where do you go when you leave me?
I see you in my dreams
But you are far away.

Borne from the darkness
Above the rivers of fire
On wings soft as the wind

Is everything sad going to come untrue?

Lyrics by Billy Boyd, Philippa Boyens, and Fran Walsh
Composed by Billy Boyd
I saw the light fade from the sky
On the wind I heard a sigh
As the snowflakes cover
My fallen brothers
I will say this last goodbye.
Night is now falling
So ends this day
The road is now calling
And I must away.
Over hill and under tree
Through lands where never light has shone
By silver streams that run down to the sea
Under cloud, beneath the stars
Over snow and winter's morn
I turn at last to paths that lead home.
And though where the road then takes me,
I cannot tell
We came all this way
But now comes the day
To bid you farewell.
Many places I have been
Many sorrows I have seen
But I don't regret
Nor will I forget
All who took that road with me.
Night is now falling
So ends this day
The road is now calling
And I must away.
Over hill, and under tree
Through lands where never light has shone
By silver streams that run down to the sea
To these memories I will hold
With your blessing I will go
To turn at last to paths that lead home.
And though where the road then takes me,
I cannot tell
We came all this way
But now comes the day
To bid you farewell
I bid you all a very fond farewell.
