Of Deeds Of Aurya
Of deeds of valour speak unto me
Of the great men of old, of the city of gold
Tell what happned clearly to me
Of Aurya the old, the ancient hold
Glorious it was, the city to behold
And the northern wind cold, did unfold
The coming of fate
The harbringer of hate
The city went up in smoke and flame
The people all came to blame
Agalath, the stranger, the augur, the blazer
Tll the people exclaimed in anger
Yet the chosen did leave before the end
Years lost in wander they spent
But Zotis to Orten did show the way
And through Baratca by the pathway
Seven set out, but four remain
Three tribes estranged, and one inane
Sons of Varius, Orten never walked, sons of Varius, justice never got
Aran and Talin were lost and outwalked, Aran and Talin were lost and never sought
Some to the east some to the west
And some to furthest south they pressed
Monduin it was that came to behold
The kingdoms of man in every hold
He traveled long, he traveled far
To the white mountains, and lands afar
Through forest dark, he came at last
To the golden home, the place of past
There he slew Agalath of old
And thus fullfiled what was foretold
And greatest he was of all who came
And like him, there would not be a same
To the lost lands he went
To seek all the hiers he was bent
Bandits fierce and stormy seas he braved
And in Astalia his memory forever engraved
Home of the elder kin, Vedus and Aerin herein
Made their abode therein, after forsaking kin
And now desperate kingdoms they are
And the normal state of things is war
Monduin came to Maeligath
And to him he offered to cut a swath
Through enemies, and those in revolt
And bring all into the fold
Swiftly he went and was the victor
And all came to obey the high kings sceptar
Maeligath at last became High king
Conquest and glory became his thing
So he led an army into Rudesia
And fought with the servents of Chelosia
Then they pressed on and the great host
Finally came to be no more lost
