Pe-un picior de plai, Pe-o gură de rai, Iată vin în cale, Se cobor la vale, Trei turme de miei, Cu trei ciobănei. Unu-i moldovan, Unu-i ungurean Și unu-i vrâncean. Iar cel ungurean Și cu ce-l vrâncean, Mări, se vorbiră, Ei se sfătuiră Pe l-apus de soare Ca să mi-l omoare Pe cel moldovan, Că-i mai ortoman Ș-are oi mai multe, Mândre și cornute, Și cai învățați, Și câni mai bărbați, Dar cea mioriță, Cu lână plăviță, De trei zile-ncoace Gura nu-i mai tace, Iarba nu-i mai place. - Mioriță laie, Laie bucălaie, De trei zile-ncoace Gura nu-ți mai tace! Ori iarba nu-ți place, Ori ești bolnăvioară, Drăguță mioară?

[Verse] In the dark they play with glee Shadows dance beneath the tree Whispers call them one by one Seeking dreams forever gone [Chorus] Frozen smiles on faces pale Candles flicker in the gale Lullabies of sorrow hum Children silent as they come [Verse 2] Footsteps echo through the night Ghostly figures out of sight Hand in hand they join the fray Lost in games they cannot play [Chorus] Frozen smiles on faces pale Candles flicker in the gale Lullabies of sorrow hum Children silent as they come [Bridge] Who will tell their untold tale Who will mourn those lost and frail Echos in the empty halls Destined to forever call [Chorus] Frozen smiles on faces pale Candles flicker in the gale Lullabies of sorrow hum Children silent as they come
(Verse 1) In the shadow of the twilight, where the lost souls roam, Battle-torn fields covered in blood, they’re calling me home. My heart wears the colors of the scars we bear, As memories drift like whispers, floating through the air. (Chorus) Oh, can you hear our story in the echoes of the night? We were brothers in the fire, now we’re fighting for the light. Though the ground is stained forever, and the tears will never dry, We mourn the one who’s vanished, but in spirit, he will fly. (Verse 2) We shared dreams in the laughter, found solace in the pain, Through the silence of the battle, we were dancing in the rain. But the storm grew ever darker, and fate took him away, Now we’re left with the shadows, where his spirit used to play. (Chorus) Oh, can you hear our story in the echoes of the night? We were brothers in the fire, now we’re fighting for the light. Though the ground is stained forever, and the tears will never dry, We mourn the one who’s vanished, but in spirit, he will fly. (Bridge) We gather at the dawn, beneath the breaking sky, Whispers of his laughter still linger as we cry. With every dawn we rise, we carry him inside, Though the journey feels so heavy, love will be our guide. (Chorus) Oh, can you hear our story in the echoes of the night? We were brothers in the fire, now we’re fighting for the light. Though the ground is stained forever, and the tears will never dry, We mourn the one who’s vanished, but in spirit, he will fly. (Outro) So here’s to the lost soldiers, to the friends we hold dear, In the silence of these fields, we’ll keep you ever near. As we walk this heavy road, through shadows and the sun, We’ll tell the tale of love that can’t be undone.

[Verse] Louis of the glen By the moon's dim light Wandered through the heather Into the night Fear caught his breath Shadows in a dance But nature's gentle whispers gave him a chance [Chorus] Oh Wild valleys and the winds so free Guide young Louis Let his spirit be By the stream and o'er the hill Nature's strength His heart to fill [Verse 2] Stars above like lanterns Softly bright Held his worries Made the darkness light The whisper of the pines The rustle of the leaves In the cradle of the forest His heart believes [Chorus] Oh Wild valleys and the winds so free Guide young Louis Let his spirit be By the stream and o'er the hill Nature's strength His heart to fill [Verse 3] Morning broke with a gentle hum Louis faced the dawn Fear had succumbed Strength from the earth Courage from the breeze In nature's arms His soul found ease [Bridge] Echoes of the night A distant dream Louis walked with purpose By the stream Fear now a whisper In the quiet glen Nature's song His constant friend
Verse 1 In the darkest of night a knocking at the door, (Oh, who could it be?) For a loved one has made it home, (Thank God they're home!) But the joy is tinged with sorrow, a story left untold, (What have they seen?) For war leaves its shadows where the memories unfold. Chorus Tears fall down the loved ones' faces, (Oh, how they weep!) A war-torn thought across the land, (We pray for peace!) Four brave soldiers in the war, (What did they fight for?) All four soldiers suffered different fates, (What will become of them?) A war is not without blood or tears. (Oh, can you hear?) Verse 2 One came marching proudly, his spirit shining bright, (Welcome him home!) But another's in a flag draped coffin, (Oh, the pain tonight!) The loved ones gather ‘round him, with heavy hearts they grieve, (His sacrifice won't leave!) In the midst of all this honor, it's hard to believe. Chorus Tears fall down the loved ones' faces, (Oh, how they weep!) A war-torn thought across the land, (We pray for peace!) Four brave soldiers in the war, (What did they fight for?) All four soldiers suffered different fates, (What will become of them?) A war is not without blood or tears. (Oh, can you hear?) Bridge One is crippled by the battle, his body bears the scars, (Oh, the weight he carries!) Another's trapped in memories, haunted by the stars, (Will he find his peace?) The echoes of the past, they whisper through the night, (Help them, Lord!) With every prayer we send, we seek to make it right. Chorus Tears fall down the loved ones' faces, (Oh, how they weep!) A war-torn thought across the land, (We pray for peace!) Four brave soldiers in the war, (What did they fight for?) All four soldiers suffered different fates, (What will become of them?) A war is not without blood or tears. (Oh, can you hear?) Outro In the darkest of nights, we gather hand in hand, (Feel the love grow strong!) Remembering the fallen, and those who made it back, (Their courage lives on!) Through the heartache and the struggle, we find a way to mend, (With God’s grace, we stand!) For in the prices of war, love will always transcend. (And we sing along!)

[Verse] I lost my talk you took it away Little girl lost in words missing sway At Shubenacadie where voices fell Echoes in silence no stories to tell [Verse] You snatched it away no language left Just a shadow voice in my mind bereft Speak like you mimic every phrase Caught in your echo for endless days [Chorus] Scrambled ballad of my broken song Words all mixed up where do I belong Lost my talk it slipped through my grasp Voiceless whispers in silence they gasp [Verse] Think like you but my dreams are bold Tales untold hearts left out in the cold Create like you but it's never the same Pieces of me trapped in your game [Bridge] In your world I am a silent scream Fragments of speech like a distant dream Lost in translation my words astray Hoping to find them one bright day [Chorus] Scrambled ballad of my broken song Words all mixed up where do I belong Lost my talk it slipped through my grasp Voiceless whispers in silence they gasp

Private Hazard, a coder so grand, In Conroe, Texas, he makes his stand. TFR mod, his heart's desire, But chances blown, set his soul on fire. (Chorus) Oh, Hazard, Hazard, with belly so round, Unemployed and coding, your fame will resound. Littlebuddy by your side, a loyal friend, But chances you squander, time and again. (Verse 2) HOI4, your passion, your digital art, But deadlines missed, tore the team apart. Promises broken, trust betrayed, A reputation shattered, a price to be paid. (Chorus) Oh, Hazard, Hazard, with belly so round, Unemployed and coding, your fame will resound. Littlebuddy by your side, a loyal friend, But chances you squander, time and again. (Bridge) Conroe nights, filled with pizza and code, A dream of modding, a heavy load. But laziness crept in, and procrastination took hold, Leaving your talent wasted, your story untold. (Chorus) Oh, Hazard, Hazard, with belly so round, Unemployed and coding, your fame will resound. Littlebuddy by your side, a loyal friend, But chances you squander, time and again. (Outro) Will Hazard rise, from the ashes of failure, Or fade into obscurity, a cautionary tale? Only time will tell, if he can mend his ways, And reclaim his place, in the modding game's maze.
The Ballad of the Aldbury 2024 Verse 1 Oh, gather ‘round and lend an ear, To tales of Aldbury’s finest year! With mishaps grand and stories tall, We’ll sing and laugh about them all. Chorus Oh, Aldbury’s a village where the fun won’t stop, From Heathrow keys to a Ryanair flop. We’ve got cracked hips, vodka sips, and candles that fail, It’s Aldbury life—let’s raise a pale! Verse 2 Rob Ray left his car a-runnin’, Three and a half hours, now ain’t that somethin’? Steve Webb’s keys, they went astray, In Heathrow’s car park while he flew away! Chorus Oh, Aldbury’s a village where the fun won’t stop, From Heathrow keys to a Ryanair flop. We’ve got cracked hips, vodka sips, and candles that fail, It’s Aldbury life—let’s raise a pale! Verse 3 At Christmas dinner, the jollies ran high, But five caught Covid, oh my, oh my! Sandra and Jeff saw fists take flight, As their Ryanair plane made a mid-air fright. Verse 4 David Demmery, he took a spill, On a blue ski slope, now he’s sitting still. And Annie packed shoes that didn’t twin, She’s walking through Cornwall in quite a spin ! Chorus Oh, Aldbury’s a village where the fun won’t stop, From Heathrow keys to a Ryanair flop. We’ve got cracked hips, vodka sips, and candles that fail, It’s Aldbury life—let’s raise a pale! Verse 5 Now George won’t leave his mortar and pestle, He grinds his spices with tourist hustle. Nikki Sharp left Dobbies unpaid, With Mum in tow, it’s a daring escapade! Verse 6 Barbara saw Clooney, right there in the ‘Ridge, While filming scenes by Ashridge Bridge. Rob took a hot run, then guzzled down, Sally’s vodka—oh, how he frowned! Chorus Oh, Aldbury’s a village where the fun won’t stop, From Heathrow keys to a Ryanair flop. We’ve got cracked hips, vodka sips, and candles that fail, It’s Aldbury life—let’s raise a pale! Verse 7 And Jeff lit a candle, “It’s volcanic!” he claimed, But it just burned plain, with no lava to flame. Oh, Aldbury’s folk are quirky and fine, In 2024, they’ve had quite the time. Final Chorus Oh, Aldbury’s a village where the fun won’t stop, From Heathrow keys to a Ryanair flop. With mishaps and laughter, we’ve told what we think, Here’s to Aldbury life—let’s raise a drink !
