Darka/Songbook
Darka! Darka, between the Mountain and the Sea!
North Wind blew there; the light upon the Silver Tree
Fell like bright rain in gardens of kings of old
O Proud Walls! White Towers! O Winged Banner and throne of gold!
O Darka, Darka! Shall Men behold the Silver Tree,
Or North Wind blow again between the Mountain and the sea?
by Kayne Himoura
Far in the North in a distant land
Great cities there are
They seem to be made by God's hand
The Land of Darka stretches far
Land of many wars
More people dwell there then there are stars
Great heros here are born
Until the banner is torn
Darka shall shine over many great victories
by Kayne Himoura
Chorus: Darka, Darka, Darka.
The realm where I want to be,
Far-off marching or dug in,
Or just fighting a war.
Darka, Darka, Darka,
It's the realm for me.
Verse: You're so near to Eston,
So far from Abby.
Quite a long way from Aja,
Lots of miles from Makar.
Chorus: Darka, Darka, Darka.
The realm where I want to be,
Eating cookies in Azzal,
Or drinking beer in Siver.
Darka, Darka, Darka,
Darka has it all.
Verse: You're so sadly neglected,
And often ignored,
A poor second to CE,
When going abroad.
Chorus: Darka, Darka, Darka.
The realm where I quite want to be,
Your mountain so lethal,
Your plains so wide.
Darka, Darka, Darka,
Darka has it all.
Repeat: Darka, Darka, Darka.
The realm where I quite want to be,
Your mountain so lethal,
Your plains so wide.
Darka, Darka, Darka,
Darka has it all.
Fade: Darka has it all...

In the campaign against southasland
we departed silently, no sound of a band
we arrived in tucha to scale the wall
there we saw many a man fall
the three great realms
sun glittering on their mens helms
Eston! Minas Ithil! Darka!
the greatest of the three
is darka the mercanary
their army is vast
united at last
then there is Minas Ithil
in the north but escaping arctic chill
they have seen more blood spill
last but not least
is eston the noble beast
in there halls have been many a feast
but withdrew before the fighting had ceased
by Kayne Himoura
We marched off into the unknown,
cleaved peasents flesh straight off the bone,
we settled down at Norlands door,
the symbol of Darka on our shields and banners we bore,
our pockets and our hearts were heavy,
leaving our homes where drinks are aplenty,
The Hammer upon the anvil is singing its songs of war,
Battle and fame we crave ever more,
West Wind bear us tiding,
Norland troops over yonder hiding,
in Shiverwood the great forest
it is in battle that we prove Darka's the best!
by Kayne Himoura
We are the Darkans paid to kick your ass,
so now raise your glass,
together we shall drink our ale,
we have large armies with shining swords and mail,
we are the fierce mercanaries from Azzal,
we have lived to see many a great empire fall,
Mr Jones is our noble king,
of him many tales bards sing,
Donovan the drunk pokes with the best,
but if he pokes Kayne the bard he will die like the rest,
the wise sage Betizac is somewhat new,
but he still likes to drink and spew,
Light is a bit lacking in the upper story,
but battles he is in tend to be awful gory,
and not to mention his wife is awful hoary ;),
alittlehopeforhopelesstimes has a really long name,
dare not attempt to spell it if your spelling is lame,
for it will put you to much shame,
that is but a few of our large realm,
may our swords cleave forever through an enemies helm,
for we are the Darkans of the North!

The Prison Song
Well i'm a fool and i can't infiltrate,
i can't delay travel so you won't be late,
i'm a moron ain't life great,
i'm rotting here in allied jail,
i'd be out but i can't pay bail,
TRALLALALA i'm in prison today,
i'm singing what i have to say,
i'm stupid yes its true,
i can't seem to find anything i can do!
Well i'm an idiot you see,
i wanted to stab people but it wasnt to be,
i'm a bard and a soldier through and through,
just like the rest of my family too,
i haven't got a clue,
that i'm foreign lands!
TRALLALALA i'm in prison today,
i'm singing what i have to say,
i'm stupid yes its true,
i can't seem to find anything i can do!
I'm pitiful with my stupid and dull knife,
i went to kill a guard and got my wife,
then i ran away,
and look at me today!

thanks to:
Mr. Jones- for giving me the idea, getting me on irc, helping me out when i was a noob and adding the pictures and for doing most the darka wiki page, without you i would be nothing
to myself, Kayne Himoura the Bard worthy of King Ragnos praise- I added most the songs you see here with the exception of one so far... hoping for more ppl to add stuff... For Darka! Also check out my family page at TheHimouraFamily
NOTE: These songs aren't necessarily historically, diplomatically nor politically accurate, since Darka is not committing cencorship nor centralizedly collecting and checking these in here.
