The lotus flower is troubled At the sun's resplendent light; With sunken head and sadly She dreamily waits for the night.

The world is grey, the mountains old, The forge's fire is ashen-cold; No harp is wrung, no hammer falls: The darkness dwells in Durin's halls; The shadow lies upon his tomb In Moria, in Khazad-dum. But still the sunken stars appear In dark and windless Mirrormere; There lies his crown in water deep, Till Durin wakes again from sleep.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly All your life You were only waiting for this moment to arise Blackbird singing in the dead of night Take these sunken eyes and learn to see All your life You were only waiting for this moment to be free.

Reason means truth and those who are not governed by it take the chance that someday the sunken fact will rip the bottom out of their boat.

The buried talent is the sunken rock on which most lives strike and founder.
