North of her home by the black sea
Inside of caves dark and gloomy
That hide the good 'n' conceal the free
The hope lay of secrets to be
For peace evermore
And up and down the elf folk go
To gaze where the cold winds blow
Around the shale rocks there below
Keeping gems only a few know
The Island of Damore
Evergreens whiten, aspen quiver
Cold breezes rock and shiver
From the sea that runs forever
By the island near the river
Flowing down to the shore
Silent filled days of endless hours
Sealed gray walls, under gray towers
Overlook tundra void of flowers
And the silent isle embowers
The Elfin Lady Lenore
Where creatures of evil shadow
By mystic spell do not to know
The winds of war do not dare blow
Through the peaceful blue rivers flow
On the Island of Danore
Protected from any dangerous band
What man has seen her wave her hand?
Or at the entrance seen her stand?
Is she remembered in her land?
The Elfin Lady Lenore
Her only love, fair and brave, Altiny
Long ago left to meet his destiny
To the dead pools of Restiny
Bearing her ring of destiny
Of the Crimson Northern Shore
Slaves of the Dark Lord search to know
Where the peaceful blue rivers flow
To hide the elf in caves below
From the eyes of evil shadow
The Elfin Lady Lenore
By the dark the creatures weary
Seeking places restless and eerie
Through lands swampy, dark and dreary
'Til by chance capture a fairy
Of the Crimson Northern Shore
“There she hides by night and day
A mystic cave of colors gray
Near the river by the blue bay”
In a whisper they heard her say
On the Island of Danore
She knows not what her fear my be
And so she sings songs steadily
Of hope that she will soon be free
Little other pleasure has she
The Elfin Lady Lenore
By night the Dark Lord's creature came
To her island with burning flame
They descended like lighting 'n' rain
Seeking Lenore 'n' her ring of fame
On the Island of Danore
Cursed where the creatures when they found
Lenore laying on the cold ground
Without an emerald ring around
Silent she would not make a sound
The Elfin Lady Lenore
Still alive creatures carried away
From the dark caves of color gray
To Dark Lord's realm of slow decay
For her Love she would not betray
The Elfin Lady Lenore
