Y singe a songe about nothyng in particular

 

A popular ballad from the The Magic Sword Kings Period, attributed to the middling literary prowess of Grimbold Backbiter, the Vice Chancellor of the Census and Sundry Other Administrative Affairs under the reign of Frogeater Notapuppet.

 

Here Y syt, on me tayble

Y poure a byt of ye syrup mayple

Y poure it heere, Y poure it thar,

Y singe 'bout nothyng in partic-u-lar.

 

And yestyrdaye, Y saw a horse

Whyle Y was oute doin' my choures

Y sawe it go from heere to thar

And Y sung bout nothyng in partic-u-lar.

 

To-daye Y pored a mug of beere

And Y sange oute a songe of cheere

Y sung it neere, Y sung it far,

And Y sunge bout nothying in partic-u-lar.

 

Morrow Y shalle watche the sunne ryse

Then perhapse Y'll swat a few flyse

Y swat theme heere, Y swat theme far.

While Y sing bout nothying in partic-u-lar.

 

So here Y syt, on a hylltope

I'll keep syngyng until ye'll stoppe

Y synge it heere, Y synge it thar,

Singe a songe 'bout nothying in partic-u-lar.

In "Songs of Battal", obviously.
