Not Baldor then, if he was never a king.

the two of us share?"
"Your men bring to fight
their spears in the night
If just mine could, too,
pierce hearts like yours do!"
Sam's song of Gilgalad begins
"of him the harpers sadly sing", which is pretty much in the way of piercing the heart.
The army of the Dead had spears
"like winter thickets on a misty night" (Legolas), but then they would not be Baldor's army.
It is unclear whether the Dead had a King, I thought Peter Jackson invented that character. I read the phrase
"the coming of the King of the Dead" as a reference to Aragorn, but he would not fit your verse because he is not 'long dead'.
That leaves me considering other dead kings of unknown throne and enemies... hmm
