Elw Folk Songs

Songs about the Elfinshi War

That Bastard Ardashir

We heard the horns before they came
How I wish I was in Elwynn now
The newborn babes began to cry
As the Duke cried out to “Fight or die!”
Gods damn them all


The Babkhans burned the town to the ground
How I wish I was in Elwynn now
The Khan declared an all out war
And sixteen men kicked down my door
Gods damn them all


So we mourn for Elwynn lost to us
For a thousand years
Ilallí!
Anlithurumi-l Ell aeir
Gods damn that bastard Ardashir


They raped the girls and killed the men
How I wish I was in Elwynn now
When Daniel Dravot shot my son
I knew the fight would never be won
Gods damn them all
