Piper's Lullaby (Extended Version)

[Dusk Rainblade]

An old Vulpinsulan lullaby, anonymously written. The first four verses are most popular and are commonly provided in written form; the last three are typically left off the record, perhaps due to their slightly subversive message.

Nevermind the pouring rain,
Nevermind the storm's refrain,
Nevermind the aches and pain,
Sun will come again.

Nevermind the creeping dark,
Nevermind the mournful lark,
Nevermind the silence stark,
Sun will come again.

Nevermind the mountain steep,
Nevermind its shadows deep,
Nevermind the things that creep,
Sun will come again.

Nevermind the battles past,
Nevermind the cannon's blast,
Nevermind the grave's cold cast,
Sun will come again.

Nevermind the trumpet's sound,
Nevermind the cries around,
Nevermind those never found,
Sun will come again.

Nevermind the hoary frost,
Nevermind the vict'ry's cost,
Nevermind the ones we lost,
Sun will come again.

Nevermind the mourner's wail,
Nevermind survivors' tale,
Never wonder if we failed
To bring the sun again.
