The Bard's Song is one of their biggest classics, performed and released live frequently: performances include Wacken Open Air, Imaginations Through The Looking Glass.

    For those who which to sing along to this instrumental cover, these are the lyrics:
    Now you all know
    The bards and their songs
    When hours have gone by
    I'll close my eyes
    In a world far away
    We may meet again
    But now hear my song
    About the dawn of the night
    Let's sing the bards' song
    Tomorrow will take us away
    Far from home
    No one will ever know our names
    But the bards' songs will remain
    Tomorrow will take it away
    The fear of today
    It will be gone
    Due to our magic songs
    There's only one song
    Left in my mind
    Tales of a brave man
    Who lived far from here
    Now the bard songs are over
    And it's time to leave
    No one should ask you for the name
    Of the one
    Who tells the story
    Tomorrow will take us away
    Far from home
    No one will ever know our names
    But the bards' songs will remain
    Tomorrow all will be known
    And you're not alone
    So don't be afraid
    In the dark and cold
    'Cause the bards' songs will remain
    They all will remain
    In my thoughts and in my dreams
    They're always in my mind
    These songs of hobbits, dwarves and men
    And elves
    Come close your eyes
    You can see them, too

    Simply beautiful!
    Something strange and wonderful is lurking between the silent ruins, the green rolling hills and pasture. It's that same kind of alchemy that Eriador transforms the familiar into the unknown, the safe into the wonderfully strange and the old into the young-young to unfathomably old. And with that subtlety the Brandywine is transformed into the Baranduin.

    Now you all know the bards and their songs
    When hours have gone by, I'll close my eyes
    In a world far away we may meet again
    But now hear my song about the dawn of the night
    Let's sing the bard's song
    Tomorrow will take us away far from home
    No one will ever know our names
    But the bards' songs will remain
    Tomorrow will take it away the fear of today
    It will be gone due to our magic songs
    There's only one song left in my mind
    Tales of a brave man who lived far from here
    Now the bard songs are over and it's time to leave
    No one should ask you for the name of the one
    Who tells the story
    Tomorrow will take us away far from home
    No one will ever know our names
    But the bards' songs will remain
    Tomorrow all will be known and you're not alone
    So don't be afraid in the dark and cold
    'Cause the bards' songs will remain they all will remain
    In my thoughts and in my dreams
    They're always in my mind
    These songs of hobbit, dwarves and men and elves
    Come close your eyes you can see them too
