Anthem Lyrics

Post by Scott of Hyperborea »

We have a national anthem, thanks to Nick, but no lyrics. I tried writing some up this morning. Obviously it is meant to be sung to the tune in that midi. Since the midi's not very long, the lyrics aren't either; if this is considered a bad thing I'd be happy to write something longer if I get a longer song to work with.Original Version:Quote:Shireroth, the land of the nifty, hallowed by our toilShireroth, the land of the happy, our own patch of soilShireroth, the land of the rebel, blazing our own waysShireroth, the land of the noble, let us sing thy praiseMore Yardistani-ized versionQuote:Shireroth, the land of the nifty, hallowed by gods and FateWhere small clods of soil and filth can merge into something greatShireroth, the land of the rebel, breaking from ways of yoreShireroth, the land of the noble, may Death spare thee evermore!Are either of these any good?

I am totally unnerved by this. I had a dream last night about writing lyrics to the Shirerothian national anthem.The second set is way better. Harvey SteffkeSai'Kar's Memories LiveJournal - ranting about Shirerothian issues since fall 2004.

I just love the second one. It is nifty, it is quirky, individualistic, and fun.
