The Outlands Song

Verse 1
'Twas on a dark and starry night The King did come to me Saying "Quickly gird you for the fight And its off to war we'll be" So I'm gathering my men at arms Good shieldmen one and all And it's off to fight in Western lands Where allied brethren fall
Chorus 1
My Kingdom is The Outlands And of Her I will sing My lady has my truest love My blood is for my King I'm following His Majesty In some hot foreign war My heart is in The Outlands, and it will be ever more
Verse 2
Eight hundred mile we rode our steeds To meet them in the sun Some God-forsaken enemy Stout warriors every one Our allied brothers at our sides Good men from Calontir The Aten King cried "Forward men" To death on Outlands spears
Verse 3
We met them on the broken field Their blood in rivers ran Their King refused the right to yield We killed them to a man We hit the Aten shield wall They dropped their swords and fled When The Outlands had won through it all You could not count the dead
Verse 4
At Pennsic AS Twenty-three The Outlands on the field The Eastern flanking shield wall Never had the chance to yield We drove them back like cattle As they fell beneath our swords- King Christopher, Queen Cymber And Their Noble Outlands Lords
Verse 5
We stood in Adlersruhe A bridge covered in gore Outnumbered in a foreign land Held to the Oaths we swore The plains were dark with Lions Black Stars of Ansteorre The White Stag leapt to battle Now the Lion leaps no more
Verse 6
Our ladies met them at the pass Sixteen fighters strong The Aten men laughed at them Queen Tara proved them wrong They struck the Aten shield wall And men heard a death bell ring Now no longer will they scoff For they felt the beauties sting
Verse 7
Our king called us to battle To fight the Aten horde They've never lost Estrella men Our allies need this war We swept them on the open field We crushed them in the fray The Aten Army's spirit broke The Outlands won the day
