Refers to Laketown, town of men that sits at the foot of the Lonely Mountain. "And as the sky is falling down, it crashed into this lonely town"
But the heirs would be just as lost without their people, "Oh should my people fall then surely I'll do the same". "Durin's sons" are Thorin, and his nephews, Fíli and Kíli because they are the heirs to the throne. Refers to the dwarves putting their leaders first, because all would be lost without them. They are willing to die and burn together and even bring desolation fighting for what they lost. This song describes the dwarves in the company of Thorin Oakenshield(son of Thror, son of Thrain, heir to the line of Durin, King Under the Mountain) in their quest to take back their homeland from the dragon Smaug. General CommentThe mountain is the Lonely Mountain, the Kingdom of Erebor, the last dwarf kingdom in Middle Earth.
