A Midrealm War-Song


Tune: Roisin the Beau (trad)            


Come now from the hills and the prairies
Come now from the rivers and shores
And gather all under our banner
The Midrealm is going to war
The Midrealm is going to war
The Midrealm is going to war
And gather all under our banner
The Midrealm is going to war

From hearth and from home we come marching
Together as kin on the field
And let your bright swords now come flashing
For never the Dragon will yield
For never the Dragon will yield
For never the Dragon will yield
And let your bright swords now come flashing
For never the Dragon will yield

And lo! as the war-horns are sounded
And brave hearts are lifted up high
Like fire that is kindled and leaping
The Dragon rides up in the sky
The Dragon rides up in the sky
The Dragon rides up in the sky
Like fire that is kindled and leaping
The Dragon rides up in the sky

So proudly and bold flies the Dragon
More swift than a bird on the wing
And to the Sun music is lifted
As from the hills our horns do ring
As from the hills our horns do ring
As from the hills our horns do ring
And to the Sun music is lifted
As from the hills our horns do ring

Together we join in the battle
Our deeds there are noble and bold
And may they be ever remembered
Wherever our stories are told
Wherever our stories are told
Wherever our stories are told
And may they be ever remembered
Wherever our stories are told

Now raise up a glass to the fallen
From sorrow and pain ever free
Their deeds and their words and their honor
Held dear in our memories
Held dear in our memories
Held dear in our memories
Their deeds and their words and their honor
Held dear in our memories

Yet true hearts will never be conquered
And stars still shine bright in the sky
We proudly shout "Draco Invictus!"
Whenever our banners may fly
Whenever our banners may fly
Whenever our banners may fly
We proudly shout "Draco Invictus!"
Whenever our banners may fly
