Listen to the song at my SoundCloud page:
Listen to The Raven King (filk)
Lyrics:
Not long, not long, my father said
Not long shall you be ours
The Raven King knows all to well
Which are the finest flowers
The priest was all too worldly
Though he prayed and rang his bell
The Raven King three candles lit
The priest said it was well
Her arms were all too feeble
Though she claimed to love me so
The Raven King stretched out his hand
She sighed and let me go
This land is all too feeble
It is painted on the sky
And trembles like the wind-shook rain
When the Raven King goes by
For always and for always
I pray remember me
Upon the moors, beneath the stars
With the King's wild company!
Thank you for listening! <3
