Coming Home From Tarwin's Gap

My home is waiting there for me,
and the girl I left behind.
Of all the treasure that waits for me,
that's what I want to find.
Her eyes so merry, and her smile so sweet,
her hugs so warm, and her ankle neat,
her kisses hot, not there's a treat.
If there's a treasure greater, it lies not in my mind.
Oh, I have seen stark Tarwin's Gap,
and the Trollocs' raving horde.
I have stood 'fore the Halfman's charge,
and walked on death's cold border.
But a winsome lass, she waits for me,
for a dance, and a kiss 'neath the apple tree.
If there's a treasure greater, it lies not in my mind.
