Song of a Wayfarer

Churga_Hral · March 2017

I am a lone, wayfaring lizard
traveling through
these lands of strife
I have a staff, but am no wizard
just please don't try
to take my life

I'm going home
to see my hatchlings
I'm going home
to see the Hist
but all of the rain
is full of ashes
and even the sun
is dimmed by mist

I am a lone, wayfaring lizard
traveling through
the sound of wails
It seems we've lost
the eggs of wisdom
I've seen many sights
that dry my scales

I'm going home
to see my marsh-mates
I'm going home
where sun is bright
But no one can know
where the river wanders
I'm traveling on
all through this night

[please feel free to add more]

[As a fellow argonian]

I am a lone wayfarer argonian upon a lonely road,
I am a lone wayfarer argonian heading to destinations untold,
With naught but a whimsical nature and a smile,
I walk the bredth of Tamriel for many-a-mile.

No home do I tame, no hearth do I claim,
For perhaps only the road upon which I came.
A wanderlust beckons from within my heart,
A wanderlust of which my soul cannot dear depart.

I am a lone wayfarer argonian upon a lonely road,
I am a lone wayfarer argonian heading to destinations untold,
Over the mountains of fierce orcs and nords,
Over the fields of White Golds Towers and lords,

No golden king nor silver queen can claim my allegiance true,
No alliance shall I bestow the oath of "I'll die for you!"
The wandering road is my companion, confidant and friend,
Whom I am reluctant to heed, only when in a brothel for a lover's mend.

I am a lone wayfarer argonian upon a lonely road,
I am a lone wayfarer argonian heading to destinations untold,
Over waters to the gilded mer across the Abecean Sea.
Over the dunes of starlit sands where Elsywere tis free.
