Behold the captains of the West
Riding under Gondor’s crest
See their gleaming swords
Drawn to taste orc-blood!
In the clash of arms
They march steadfast!
From the tower of guard
Captains of the West
Fight desperate
Against legions
Of the evil eye!
Sound the horns of war
O captains of the West
For wrath and ruin march
O captains of the West
Come knights of legendry!
Now return to us
King beyond the sea
Son of Arathorn,
Lord Elfstone!
Unto a long
Glory foretold
Ride by thy side
Loyal captains –
The captains of the West!
Sound the horns of war
O captains of the West
For wrath and ruin march
O captains of the West
Come knights of legendry!
“The lords of Gondor have returned and all this land that is theirs, they take back!”
