HS COMMENT

Lyrics from the FOTR, TTT, & ROTK Annotated Scores.

For the most part, these lyrics are sung as part of the Ringwraiths Theme. (Although the Ringwraiths Theme is also played without singing.) You will notice that most of those iterations above are from the first half of FOTR. After the Ringwraiths are overcome by the uprising of the River Bruinen, you don't really hear their theme much.

The one exception is music scored, but not used, for Frodo's encounter with Minas Morgul. To see a video combining the visuals of that scene with the unused music, go HERE.

Sung by The London Voices.
