Betrayal of Manetheren

Betrayal of Manetheren by Adoen Calloden

Sound your sorrow loud and high

From all ten nations to Aes Sedai!

Let everyone, their shame confide

The betrayal of Manetheren.

From royal hall and farmer glen

Are gathering fast the loyal men

They grasp their swords and shout again

"The wrath of royal Manetheren!"

Is Aridhol coming? Nay, Nay

Is Essenia coming? Nay, Nay

Is Aramaelle coming? Nay Nay!

This is the betrayal of Mantheren.

See Aemon's brave devoted band

Near the Tarendrelle they've made their stand

And proudly vow with heart and hand

To fight for Royal Manetheren!

See on this butcher's field of gore

King Aemon cries "Yield ground no more, NO MORE!"

They bravely fight, what can they more?

They die for Royal Manetheren!

Is Coremanda coming? Nay, Nay

Is Aleth-Loriel coming? Nay, Nay

Is Jaramide coming? Nay, Nay!

The betrayal of Royal Manetheren.

See on the barren fields they lie

Their funeral dirge the eagles cry

And mountain breezes o'er them sigh

That fought and died Royal Manetheren.

No more we'll see such deeds again

All the land a farmer's glen

Indifferent crops grow o'er the men

Who fought and died for Manetheren.

Is Barsine coming? Nay, Nay

Is Almoren coming? Nay, Nay

Is Eharon coming? Nay, Nay!

The betrayal of Royal Manetheren!
