There's others that's come this way before
To mend their boats and refill their stores.
They gave us more than they took from us
And the King of the Kingdom of Adawm it was
That sent them here and gave us the heart
To fill up their boats and to do our part
To get them along on their merry way
To the Other Kingdom without delay.
But to those that comes to take our best
With their own uncaring selfishness
A curse I say! A double one, too,
And if you don't like it--a curse on you!
There's foul afoot: I seen the beast
Flying high in the sky when we was a feast.
Happy he's not, trouble is sure.
He's heading, I think, for the Valley of E'ure.
Where once a time, yes, long ago,
He was beat at this game, but doesn't know.
So after this boy, I am sure that he is,
For the King has called, but it is not yet His.
Safe it is not, this boy from the ship,
For the Folk in the Port are no matter to it
Sleeping away the last of the night.
If you listen to me you will send it aflight.
Trouble will come an' I say it ain't long
For this boy--it ain't no friend of Immon.
