chorus This is 'Song of Peri'el', a song of the fair Peri'el's strife against the World Dragon by Eoworfinia Galarang.
pause 8
chorus Come listen one, come listen all;To the tale of the Dragon and his come to fall.;For now he sleeps wrapped in Peri'el's song;But devastation he brought to the fair city walls.
pause 18
chorus Though no one knows how he came to be,;Born of the fourth moon, a dark day indeed.;Hungry for what Elanthia could give,;Truffenyi certain, this world would soon die.
pause 18
chorus The Dragon's scales glittering like a black gold,;Razor sharp claws and red eyes that glowed,;It drank of the very fires of Elanthia's depths.;Truffenyi called out and the Immortals soon rose.
pause 18
chorus Oh what a war, our Immortals despaired,;As the Dragon spat fires across these fair lands,;And as its flames blew and found the skies,;A moon now blackened, we shall never forget.
pause 18
chorus The Immortals pushed forward, their rage was strong,;And the sun hid its face with veils of clouds,;The Dragon was weakened yet still not dead,;So sands were casted and the Dragon sent to sleep.
pause 18
chorus But tis Peri'el I sing and her great deed,;For it was she who stepped forward, a proposal she made,;'Place the Dragon in Elanthia's very depths.';'And I shall watch it and sing it my song, forever to sleep.'
pause 18
chorus Wounded in battle from wounds no healer could heal,;This greatest of warriors, still gifted with voice.;She made her descent armed with a bag of Phelim's sands,;Her gift lulling this reptilian bane.
pause 18
chorus Her sibilant voice can often be heard;By listening to that sea shell found on the shores.;'Ah, ah, ah, sleep on oh mighty Dragon.';Dear Elanthia is safe another day.
