hobbit drinking song


Hey, ho, to the bottom I go
to heal my heart and drown my woe.
The rain may fall, the wind may blow,
but there'll still be many miles to go.

Sweet is the sound of the pouring rain,
and the stream that falls from hill to plain.
Better than rain or rippling brook...

My favourite speech in the whole trilogy, hence the extract in my signature.

"I will break him."

Witch-King to Gandalf.

Nah, not really. I too like Aragorn's pretty speech before he leads the men on their valiant charge :wink:

i have thought of another speech

KING THEODEN ADRESSING THE RIDERS OF ROHAN BEFORE THEY CHARGE AT PELENOR:

ARISE!, ARISE RIDERS OF THEODEN!, SPEARS SHALL BE SHAKEN!, SHEILDS SHALL BE SPLINTERED!, A SWORD DAY!, A RED DAY!, AND THE SUN RISES!

RIDE NOW!, RIDE!, RIDE FOR RUIN!, AND THE WORLDS ENDING!!

This one is from the lotr musical.

If you see the road as life itself it's a very good song (at least for me :-D ).

I agree with Took's Theoden speech. One of my favorite movie moments of all time.

Well, this isn't really a speech but -

Gandalf:

"A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arives precisely when he means to!".

Theoden at helms deep:

I like gandalf a "wizard is never late, nor is he early" too

But long ago he rode away
and where he dwelleth none can say
for into darkness fell his star
in Mordor where the shadows are

In that "where is the horse and the rider..." scene when they're handing out weapons and armor to all the kiddies one little tike gets an axe and I swear it looks like the axehead is being held on with gaffa tape!!!

Anyway, I think that Théoden's speech would have to be my favorite.

"Forth! and fear no darkness! Arise! Arise, Riders of Théoden! Spears shall be shaken, shields shall be splintered! A sword day... a red day... ere the sun rises! Ride now... Ride now... Ride! Ride for ruin and the world's ending! Death!... Death!... Death!"

That whole scene is pretty awesome except Eowyn who annoys the absolute [word deleted] of me whenever she's on screen.

All of those are great, especially the speech by Aragorn at the black gates and Theoden at helms deep, but I must say that this is my favorite.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken:
The crownless again shall be king.

But this one is a close second
You think you are wise Mithrandir. Yet for all your subtleties you have not wisdom. Do you think the eyes of the White Tower are blind? I have seen more than you know. With your left hand you would use me as a shield against Mordor and with your right you would seek to supplant me. I know who rides with Theoden of Rohan. Oh yes, word has reached my ears of this Aragorn, son of Arathorn. And I tell you now. I will not bow to this Ranger from the North. Last of a ragged house long bereft of Lordship

Guys, I think we are forgetting somthing -

Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky,
Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone,
Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die,
One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne
In the land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.
One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them,
One Ring to bring them all and in the darkness bind them
In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie.

last march of the ents:
We come, we come with roll of drum: ta-runda runda runda rom!
We come, we come with horn and drum: ta-runa runa runa rom!
To Isengard! Though Isengard be ringed and barred with doors of stone;
Though Isengard be strong and hard, as cold as stone and bare as bone,
We go, we go, we go to war, to hew the stone and break the door;
For bole and bough are burning now, the furnace roars - we go to war!
To land of gloom with tramp of doom, with roll of drum, we come, we come;
To Isengard with doom we come!
With doom we come, with doom we come!

Yeah, it was pretty good. Billy Boyd even has a band called Beecake. Never listened to them though...

The Lay of Nimrodel sung by Legolas upon the Fellowship's entrance into Lorien.


The Lay of Nimrodel

An elven maid there was of old
A shining star by day
Her mantle white was hemmed with gold
Her shoes of silver grey

A star was bound upon her brows
A light was on her hair
As sun upon the golden boughs
In Lorien the fair

Her hair was long, her limbs were white
And fair she was and free
And in the wind she went as light
As leaf of linden tree

Beside the falls of Nimrodel
By water clear and cool
Her voice as falling silver fell
Into the shining pool

Where now she wanders none can tell
In sunlight or in shade
For lost of yore was Nimrodel
And in the mountains strayed

The elven ship in haven grey
Beneath the mountain-lee
Awaited her for many a day
Beside the roaring sea

A wind by night in Northern lands
Arose and loud it cried
And drove the ship from elven strands
Across the streaming tide

When dawn came dim the land was lost
The mountains sinking grey
Beneath the heaving waves that tossed
Their plumes of blinding spray

Amroth beheld the fading shore
Now low beyond the swell
And cursed the faithless ship that bore
Him far from Nimrodel

Amroth was an elven-king
A lord of tree and glen
When golden were the boughs in spring
In fair Lothlorien

From helm to sea they saw him leap
As arrow from the string
And dive into the water deep
As mew upon the wing

But from the West has come no word
And on the hither shore
No tidings elven folk have heard
Of Amroth ever more.

Saruman: "You have fought many wars and slain many men, Théoden King, and made peace afterwards. Can we not have peace, you and I?"
Théoden: "When you hang from a gibbet, for the sport of your own crows, we shall have peace."

Not expecting that, were you Saruman?
