  1. Lone, in thy gloomy cell,
    Soggarth aroon!
    Base hirelings guard thee well,
    Soggarth aroon!
    Far in thy loved Gweedore
    Fond hearts are bleeding sore,
    Fond eyes hot teardrops pour,
    Soggarth aroon!
    What was thy set of guilt,
    Soggarth aroon!
    Whose was the blood you spilt,
    Soggarth aroon!
