Scottish performer and musician Billy Boyd, renowned for his portrayal of Peregrin Took in The Lord of the Rings trilogy, composed and performed this melody specifically for the closing credits of The Battle of the Five Armies. Directed by Peter Jackson, the film marks the culmination of his cinematic odyssey comprising six movies adapted from J.R.R. Tolkien's beloved classics, The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. In an interview with Billboard magazine, Boyd emphasized the broader scope of their creative endeavor, stating, "We focused on not just the final installment, but more so on this ten-year epic adventure...a song to sum up the six movies."

I dedicate this video to actor Bernard Hill (1944-2024), the one and only Theoden King.

Lyrics:
I saw the light fade from the sky
On the wind I heard a sigh
As the snowflakes cover my fallen brothers
I will say this last goodbye

Night is now falling
So ends this day
The road is now calling
And I must away
Over hill and under tree
Through lands where never light has shone
By silver streams that run down to the sea

Under cloud, beneath the stars
Over snow one winter's morn
I turn at last to paths that lead home
And though where the road then takes me
I cannot tell
We came all this way
But now comes the day
To bid you farewell

Many places I have been
Many sorrows I have seen
But I don't regret
Nor will I forget
All who took the road with me

Night is now falling
So ends this day
The road is now calling
And I must away
Over hill and under tree
Through lands where never light has shone
By silver streams that run down to the sea

To these memories I will hold
With your blessing I will go
To turn at last to paths that lead home
And though where the road then takes me
I cannot tell
We came all this way
But now comes the day
To bid you farewell

I bid you all a very fond farewell
