Song

You announce, "I shall now begin the ballad, 'Song of Dagis and Lasaijen', by Xanzie Nikatime."

"Dagis was a dusty and worn lad

Tanned and scuffed from the weather and sand

It was his first trip to the village gates

All the people came out to see their new man."

"His life they did depend on

To bring to stocks and needs so they could survive

And as the traders unloaded their wares

They inspected him thoroughly with their eyes."

"Her name was Lasaijen

With tanned skin and ebon hair so true

Their eyes met and he was caught by her

And drenched in her deep pools of blue."

"In this raging desert, in this tiny town

How could this beautiful flower bloom so bright

He ran his fingers through her garden of hair

Reveled in the tenderness of her light."

"The time was drawing near to go

The traders called their driver to his ride

One last look into her eye

He touched her cheek to say good bye."

"She said, I will not say laiho to you

It's too definite and final for my heart, you see

So do not think that this is a trifle thing

I say to you, 'Mabasim elcartaroi'."

"Mabasim elcartaroi, arn maite

Elcartaroi elo gowren

Drive those yeehar forward, boy

Till the day we will meet again."

"Many trades and many trails

Led him to and from this tiny oasis

Always he made good time and spent his day

To dive into her eyes, and await the blessing of a kiss."

"The sun is nothing to the heat of the heart

The wind cannot wear down his resolve

For each time he has to travel on

She says, 'Mabasim elcartaroi'."

"Mabasim elcartaroi, arn maite

Elcartaroi elo gowren

Drive those yeehar forward, boy

Till the day we will meet again."

"One day traveling he saw a barge

Loaded down with ragged migrant ones

He hailed the ship and pulled along

And asked where they were coming from."

"The driver told a chilling tail of slavers on the move

Slavers headed to his fair village and his fairer love

He spurred his yeehar to faster feats to make it there on time

He heart boiled in the burning sun as he prayed to the gods above."

"He landed at the gate to a pleading crowd.

He ignored their pleas and asked of his Lasaijen

She is gone, Dagis, an old woman said on an earlier ride

Yet we know not which way it went."

"Mindlessly he took them all aboard, these refugees of the sand

To help them escape from the slaver's yoke

As he left the village for the last time quietly he spoke

'Mabasim elcartaroi, arn maite'."

"Now he drives the land in search of his love

For ebon hair and deep blue eyes he yearned to see

With each new camp he seeks to hear her say as she always had,

'Mabasim elcartaroi'."

"Mabasim elcartaroi, arn maite

Elcartaroi elo gowren

Drive those yeehar forward, boy

Till the day we will meet again."

The song falls softly into silence.
