[Ansteorra-archery] Shafts of Oak

[Greylond Aston]

Gerita, late on Sat night at Three Kings, after you
and your Lord David went home, Wilm perform it for the
first time live at the House Arkham encampment. Sorry
you missed it.

Wilm, we were very honored that you gave us the
premire performance. Thank you.

How about this for suggested changes.

Shafts of Oak -

I am an Archer
I carry a Bow
the Kings call War
and off I go

With shafts of oak
and tips of steel
when we bend our bows
our foes will reel

We march all day
and through the night
for our land and people
we will fight

With shafts of oak
and tips of steel
when we bend our bows
our foes will reel

we march for days
we're traveling light
when we find the foe
we will lead the fight

With shafts of oak
and tips of steel
when we bend our bows
our foes will reel

the bowstrings sing
and the arrows soar
the foes all fall
we have won the war

With shafts of oak
and tips of steel
when we bend our bows
our foes will reel

I am an archer
I carry a bow
the kings call war
and off I go
--------------------------------------------------

Just some ideas off the top of my head.

Anyway, even Wilm's original is a great song. It has a
great march cadence feel to it. I can't wait to see,
or be a part of, a group of Archers singing it on the
way to the battlefield at an event. Gulf Wars maybe?


YIS,
