This song was conceived to mark the third and final installment of Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy, it is also a tribute to all those good people whose hearts are in Middle-Earth forever and ever.
The Russian lyrics of this song require no translation into English. The lyrics are themselves Efes’ own liberal translation of Tolkien’s original poem (the song of the Rivendell elves) from The Hobbit.
Source of the original poem:
J. R. R. Tolkien. The HOBBIT or There and Back Again. HarperCollinsPublishers, Paperback Edition, 1993. pp. 277-278.
