The Elders of Drafn

by Disa Blatonn

Hear now the tale of the Elders of Drafn
Hear now the names of our leaders of old
Remember all the brothers and the sisters of our warband
And friends more precious than silver or gold

Lawspeaker, Allfather, scion of Odin
First Tryggvi Halftrollson, Master and Knight
Then Jarl Gregory of York, once both Prince and King
Cameron of Caladoon, Baron and Master
These are the Elders whose wisdom we hear
Remember all the brothers and the sisters of our warband
And friends more precious than silver or gold

Drottin, war-leader, spear-shaker, death-maker
First Jarl Gregory of widespread renown
Baron Sir Patrick O'Malley of Ulidia
Byzantine Snorri Snafari Bjornsson
Gregory once more lent his wisdom and his prowess
Sir Haraald Hlautur Drengur laughing-boy
These are the Elders whose might is well-known
Remember all the brothers and the sisters of our warband
And friends more precious than silver or gold

Lenderman, camp-master, organizer, feast-holder
Baron Master Cameron and Hjorygg Hakonsson
Baron Sir Patrick and Countess Kissa Irminwhit
Baron Master Cameron again, and Hauk Klaengsson
Cameron once again, then Sir Drogo FitzWilliam
Golden Dagmar Rauthkin and Eblenn an Ucaire
These are the Elders whose service is told
Remember all the brothers and the sisters of our warband
And friends more precious than silver or gold

Drafn is the shields and the axes and the spear-points
Drafn is the songs and the hearts and the souls
Drafn finds its glory in the rush of bloody battle
And Drafn lives forever in the tales that are told

Remember all the brothers and the sisters of our warband
And friends more precious than silver or gold
Remember all the brothers and the sisters of our warband
And friends more precious than silver or gold
Remember all the brothers and the sisters of our warband
And friends more precious than silver or gold
