The Ranger

[Verse 1]
Born in the northlands the blood of a king
Light in the dark times, new hope he will bring
Raised in the cleft hidden valley he learned
The wisdom of those who had first walked the earth
At twenty years past his high bloodline revealed
The Evenstar's mortal fate soon to be sealed
Into the wild there the gray one he finds
Flame from the west come to save mankind

[Chorus 1]
To the south the man with ancient blood goes
To bring hope and fulfill ancient dead oaths
The ranger, true king, where the old white tree grows
No more a stranger striding through the shadows

[Verse 2]
A guardian of those destined to bear the ring
A tracker through wildlands from shadows he springs
A sage with the white one chase snakes from the throne
A warrior defending the fortress of stone
A captain commanding the fleet of the dead
A healer then mending the blood that was shed
A leader at black gates preparing to die
A king with the Evenstar by his side

[Chorus 2]
To the west the ancient children will go
A new age dawns and belongs to the hero
The ranger crowned king where the new white tree grows
No more a stranger striding through the shadows
