Dain II Ironfoot's death
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xq3a_7242Lc

I was trying to find a scene which this music could relate too but I could never get the picture of Dain II Ironfoot being killed while defending the body of his friend, King Brand before the gates of Erebor. I think the music fits his heroic death and would fitting for the death of such a dwarf.

Incase you couldn't decipher the words from the song, whether scottish or english, here they are:

Lay me down in the cold cold ground
Where before many more have gone
Lay me down in the cold cold ground
Where before many more have gone

When they come I will stand my ground
Stand my ground I'll not be afraid

Thoughts of home take away my fear
Sweat and blood hide my veil of tears

Once a year say a prayer for me
Close your eyes and remember me

Never more shall I see the sun
For I fell to a German's gun

Lay me down in the cold cold ground
Where before many more have gone
Lay me down in the cold cold ground
Where before many more have gone
Where before many more have gone
