|||
I met an elf named Fogelnacht who stalked the woods<br> |
|||
Alone at night<br> |
|||
With silver hair, a mithril sword, and hooded cloak –<br> |
|||
A ranger knight.<br> |
|||
He would keep so still, keep so still,<br> |
|||
But then suddenly he flew.<br> |
|||
[[Category:Player-created content]] |
|||
I saw him in the trees beyond the castle wall<br> |
|||
Outside of town.<br> |
|||
He looked upon me with his owlish eyes of age<br> |
|||
And swooped right down.<br> |
|||
He took my hand, took my hand,<br> |
|||
Lead me off the forest path.<br> |
|||
:O Falel Fogelnacht, |
|||
:O Falel Fogelnacht, |
|||
:O Falel Fogelnacht, |
|||
:Fly! |
|||
He said his name was Fogelnacht the woodland elf,<br> |
|||
Or just Falel.<br> |
|||
He grabbed his bow, let fly a bolt, and slayed a beast;<br> |
|||
He shot so well.<br> |
|||
He soon lit a fire, lit a fire,<br> |
|||
Cooked and told me his dark tale.<br> |
|||
"A jealous prince once set all of these woods ablaze<br> |
|||
To capture me.<br> |
|||
The smoke brought tears for years whereas my horse and I<br> |
|||
Had tried to flee.<br> |
|||
My horse coughed and died, coughed and died;<br> |
|||
I escaped to hide in caves."<br> |
|||
:O Falel Fogelnacht, |
|||
:O Falel Fogelnacht, |
|||
:O Falel Fogelnacht, |
|||
:Fly! |
|||
"The prince had tried to woo a rich and lovely lass,<br> |
|||
But she loved me.<br> |
|||
So in a rage, he stabbed the king with arrow shafts<br> |
|||
He stole from me.<br> |
|||
The prince had me framed, had me framed,<br> |
|||
Now he sits upon the throne."<br> |
|||
"Although the queen has turned her love away from me,<br> |
|||
Her fate is sealed.<br> |
|||
Now as the forest has recovered from the blaze,<br> |
|||
My heart has healed.<br> |
|||
I must fly away, fly away."<br> |
|||
Then as the fire died, I ate and sighed and said:<br> |
|||
:O Falel Fogelnacht, |
|||
:O Falel Fogelnacht, |
|||
:O Falel Fogelnacht, |
|||
:Fly! |
