Anguirel is a guest of Tom Bombadil.
And now, ladies and gentlemen, I'm going to perform one of the better known hits of the Brethil Beatles. Backing on the keyboard, voice solemn but reaching high countertenor notes in the refrain. I give you Princess Finduilas.

Ah, look at all the hidden people
Ah, look at all the hidden people

Princess Finduilas, slips on the ash
in the street where a Dragon has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the crossroads, wearing the face
that she keeps no longer for Gwindor
Who is it for

All the hidden people
Why did they all come out?
All the hidden people
Why did they reason flout?

Agarwaen Mormegil, laying stones
of a new bridge that no one will stop
No one can top
Look at him working, chiselling the rocks
in the night when there's nobody there
What does he care

All the hidden people
Why did they all come out?
All the hidden people
Why did they reason flout?

Ah, look at all the hidden people
Ah, look at all the hidden people

Princess Finduilas, died by the road
and was buried bereft of her fame
Nobody came
Turin Turambar, wiping the tears
from his eyes as he walks from the grave
No one was saved

All the hidden people
Why did they all come out?
All the hidden people
Why did they reason flout?
