From the Floating Log at Frogmorton
Faramir:
There's
a yellow rose of Rohan
That
I am going to wed
When
she first came to Gondor
We
all thought she was dead
We
are the only couple whose
Romance
takes place on-stage
Our
two big get-acquainted scenes
Each
take more than a page.
Chorus:
She's
the wildest shieldmaiden
This
Steward ever knew
Her
eyes are bright as Silmarils
She
ran that Witch-King through!
You
may talk of your Galadriel
And
sing of Arwen E.
But
the Yellow Rose of Rohan
Is
the only one for me!
Sam:
Where
the Baranduin is flowing
And
the hobbits’ eyes are bright
Her
Dad plots insurrection
In
the quiet Shire night.
The
first time that you heard her name
I
was heading up Mount Doom
But
I’ll soon go back to find her
If
this mountain’s not my tomb.
Chorus:
She
only gets three lines to speak
On
page three-fifty-five.
Master
may go to the Grey Havens
But
hey! I’m still alive.
I
was sure wowed by Galadriel
And
I miss old Frodo B.
But
my little Rosie Cotton
Is
good enough for me!
Gimli:
There's
an Elvish prince from Mirkwood
That
I am going to see
No
other Khazad knows him
No
other Dwarf but me.
I’ve
settled in at Aglarond
He’s
in Ithilien.
When
his time comes to cross the pond
I’ll
sail with him then.
Chorus:
His
hair is always perfect,
He
rarely needs to sleep.
Check
out our male bonding at
The
Battle of Helm’s Deep.
I’ve
still got it for Galadriel
And
I’d take Arwen E.
But
the Elven Rose of Mirkwood
Will
have to do for me!
