Harrison DeVries Writing

There are many songs and poetry in the kingdom of Hailgalad. One of the most popular is a military riding song called Riders in the Fields of Grass.

It is an upbeat tune sung by the troops of Hailgalad. If one travels on the countryside roads of this kingdom, there is a high likelihood you will hear its words sung.

Riders in the Fields of Grass,

Lend me here, your shining brass.

As we ride in the shining light,

With our armor glinting bright. 

Come ride with me to glory,

Help me write our story. 

Onward for the king,

His rule is fair as the angels sing. 

Onward for the Queen,

Her rule shines with the greatest sheen. 

For Hailgalad, we ride for thee,

May your reign forever be.

Riders in the Fields of Grass,

Come and form the joyful mass.

Sing with me while the morning lasts,

Trumpeters join in with merry blasts. 

Come ride with me to glory,

Help me write our story.

Cavalry with horses proud,

Lead us forth with voices loud. 

For we are the spear to pierce our foe,

The sweeping force they fear and know.

Come ride with me to glory,

Help me write our story.

Infantry with spear and shield,

Stand brave and true on the field. 

We are the defense our people rely,

We hold together do not fly.

Come ride with me to glory,

Help me write our story.

Archers long bows of string,

Loose your arrows make them sing. 

We defend our sacred walls,

And ensure our city never falls.

Come ride with me to glory,

Help me write our story.

Messengers with armor bright

Come now, ride both day and night. 

For we carry our monarch’s word,

Be quick and swift just like a bird. 

Come ride with me to glory,

Help me write our story.
