This song is about The Battle of Pelennor Fields in Return of the King. The Prince of Prince (Aragorn) embraced the gloom and walked the night alone (reference to his trip through the Paths of the Dead). The Queen of Light may also be Eowyn who turns from Aragorn after saying goodbye just before he departs.
I personally believe that the Runes in gold are referencing the Ring, that once destroyed, brings the balance back. But it may also be in reference to Merry's sword which was used to injure the Lord of the Wraiths (Sauron's 2nd in command) which brought the balance back to the immediate battle.
Either way, I am a huge Zepp fan and a huge Tolkien fan and I love their use of Tolkien references in their music. It allows you to suspend reality for a while and just swim in your own thoughts.
