| | Elvenpath Lyrics Artist(Band):Nightwish
Calling calming silence Accompanied only by the full moon The howling of a night wolf And the path under my bare feet... ...The Elvenpath) Hearing music from the deepest forest Songs as a seduction of sirens The elf-folk is calling me Tapio, Bear-king, Ruler of the forest Mielikki, Bluecloak, Healer of the ill and sad Open the gate and let me follow the uncurving path The way to the lands Where as a hero I stand The path where Beauty met the Beast Elvenpath It's the honesty of these worlds Ruled by magic and mighty swords That makes my soul long for the past Elvenpath The moonwitch took me to a ride on a broomstick Introduced me to her old friend home gnome Told me to keep the sauna warm for him At the grove I met the rest - the folk of my fantasies Bilbo, Sparhawk, goblins and pixies Snowman, Willow, trolls and the seven dwarves The path goes forever on The way to the lands Where as a hero I stand The path where Beauty met the Beast Elvenpath It's the honesty of these worlds Ruled by magic and mighty swords That makes my soul long for the past Elvenpath (Long ago, In the early years of the second age, The great elven-smiths forged the Rings of Power.) As I return to my room And as sleep takes me by my hand Madrigals from the woods Carry me to neverland In this spellbound night The world's an elvish sight In this spellbound night The world's an elvish sight (But then the dark lord learned the craft of ring-making, And made the Master Ring.)

It's not a favorite of mine even though I think it's the first song I listened to by Nightwish. It feels like a tribute to Lord of the Rings. I love that series and I love fantasy so I love the lyrics. =) | Reviewer: Drackolus | 9/23/08 It appears to me that this song isn't so much a tribute (though it clearly partially is), but the longing of such a world, where someone can truly fight for their beliefs, their worlds, and their ways. Of course, I'm just some crazy guy speculating, but hey, I've been right before. AMAZING SONG!!! | Reviewer: Will | 4/1/08 this is one of my fav songs EVER! and you can tell it was totally made for Lord Of The Rings! i mean...look at the lyrics!!! (Long ago, In the early years of the second age, The great elven-smiths forged the Rings of Power.)... ...(But then the dark lord learned the craft of ring-making, And made the Master Ring.)... and it has relation to Bilbo!!! Fantasy lover's song!! | Reviewer: Seth | 2/19/08 This song lists almost all the key points of the fantasy genre; Swords, Magic, mystic races, etc. It even lists a couple of the greatest characters from fantasy: Bilbo Baggins and Sparhawk, from The Hobbit and The Elenium/Tamuli, respectively. If you like fantasy, this is your song! Little addings | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/11/08 Holopainen is thinking mostly with his right brains so his mind is based on fantasy :D. The Lord of the Rings is taking one part of this song, but this also includes some characters from mytology of Finland. Tapio is the Lord of Woods and his realm is also called Tapiola and Mielikki (Aninka) is the spouse of Tapio. Hunters had usually sing to her to get their share of the prey. This mytology is all told in finnish national epos, Kalevala, and the stories that is in it are collected by Elias Lönnrot. Also these tales tell about a seer named Väinämöinen, who sailed away when Kiesus (Jesus Christ) came to the world. Answer for Raine | Reviewer: Freya Kissa | 1/31/08 It's written by Tuomas Holopainen's (keyboardist) point of view. One of his dreams. He's obsessed with all those things and fantasy in general- including Lord of the Rings. He merely mentions it. Question | Reviewer: Raine | 1/23/08 Odd question probably, but who's viewpoint do you think this was written from? I know it's definitely about Lord of the Rings..so I'm guessing either Frodo or Aragorn's. Anyone know? WONDERFUL | Reviewer: Aaron | 11/20/07 An awesome song that is one of my 3 favs. Too bad that the singer's voice on my mp3 is a bit lower than the background music so it isn't so undertandable Amazing Tarja | Reviewer: George afeiche | 10/11/07 Tarja Turunen is probably the best soprano rock has ever known.Nghwish music cannot be described.These guys are phenomenal. Awesome song! | Reviewer: icshadows_tc@yahoo.de | 6/17/07 I cannot stop listening to this song and it even forces me to sing along each single time I hear it - Nightwish is a fabulous band! And this song is one of my favorites!
