Lo! The valiant Captains of the West
Riding underneath Gondor’s silver crest!
Lo! Their gleaming swords drawn to taste orc blood
In the clash of arms with thunderous wrath!
Lo! The valiant Captains of the West
underneath Gondor’s silver crest!
From the tower of guard marching on steadfast
Against the legions of the Evil Eye!
Sound the horns of war
Captains of the West!
For wrath and ruin march
Captains of the West!
Blood-oath sealed by steel,
Hail unto thee kin of Numenor!
Now return to us King beyond the sea
Son of Arathorn crowned as of old!
Honor’s trumpets call unto glories long
In the embrace of war heroes to be born!
Now return to us King beyond the sea
Son of Arathorn crowned as of old!
Sword-song in the wind stirs a storm of steel
And the chalice fills wine of victory!
Sound the horns of war
Captains of the West!
For wrath and ruin march
Captains of the West!
Blood-oath sealed by steel,
Hail unto thee kin of Numenor!
