Never Again

By Aneirin Menelaos

A gift for Crown Princess Avivy and Princess Naia as performed at their birthday celebration in Nor'Seer

Oh Keep.... a watch, Up in Nor'seer's trees
The best, the loveliest of all, are here with we
Here with us they dwell,......until the dawn.
As sweet... gentle and lovely.as a fawn.

Are we here so blessed? oh I say Fen
we will never see their like.. again!

Watch, friend..., watch there....call and cry,
All that we... have wished for...has arrived
Let us not be vexed by.....the impending dawn,
Be our... merriest now.....before moving on

And dragons...circle above....in the sky
From their throats.... bellow a joyful cry
The birds perch and sing......their playful song
Lets be our merriest now......before moving on

Are we here so blessed? oh I say Fen
we will never see their like again!

Avivya's name.....evokes the Spring
When the nightingales....begin to sing
While Naia's name.....means happiness
in her presence you are truely blessed

The twins share.....the bluest eyes
That mirror the loveliest...of Nanshi skies
Luxurious silken strands of .....Silvery white
Reflect for us Levena's.....ghostly light

So Keep.... a watch,.....Up in Nor'seer's trees
Avivya and Naia are here....for all to see
There is naught more vexing....than the dawn
For then our party will have ended, we'll be gone

To betray Us....., wills the dawn,
The dawn, ohhhh....., the dawn!

Ladies, farewell! No longer dare I stay;
Despite my wish..., I must... be away.
And heavily..... upon me weighs the dawn,
How soon our party ends, then we're gone;

Stay, your Highnesses.....do not rise;
The Light that shines ...comes from thine eyes;
The dawn breaks not.... it is my heart,
Because that you... and... I....must part.

Reyalan!......Silath Ni!
have you ever seen such.....beauty

Are we here so blessed? oh I say Fen
we will never see their like again!
Never again!
Never again!
we will never see their like again!
