Late Summer Shadows

In a shop where the sparks fly bright, A man stands tall, working through the night. With a hammer and torch, he shapes the steel, Turning metal into something real. He sees the world in lines and curves, A vision of beauty in every curve. A welder by trade, but an artist at heart, He crafts his dreams from iron and art. Oh, the welder, with fire in his soul, Making beauty from the sparks that roll. Sculpting life from metal, strong and true, Every statue tells a story, a vision anew. From horses that gallop, to angels that soar, He molds them all with the fire he adores. His hands are steady, his heart beats fast, Every masterpiece, a love that will last. The workshop’s alive with rhythm and sound, Where sparks dance and sculptures are found. A symbol of strength, a vision so clear, His metal statues hold memories near. Oh, the welder, with fire in his soul, Making beauty from the sparks that roll. Sculpting life from metal, strong and true, Every statue tells a story, a vision anew. Through the crackle of flames, he hears the call, To make the impossible, to stand tall. Each weld, a whisper of dreams untold, A masterpiece forged from stories bold. Oh, the welder, with fire in his soul, Making beauty from the sparks that roll. Sculpting life from metal, strong and true, Every statue tells a story, a vision anew. So when you see a statue gleam in the light, Know that it was born from a welder’s sight. A man who loved art, and made it his goal, To turn cold metal into something whole.

[Verse 1] Jonah, could not grasp As his namesake, a dove, The love in the plan of God. [Verse 2] Where could he go? Where could he hide? So a whale came and hid him. [Verse 3] From that belly, he cried, In affliction, he groaned As humbly as he could. [Chorus] Even so, even then, God heard him. From the belly of death, Jonah came forth. [Refrain] Who can fully know God's ways? This I know when my knees bow My cries in affliction reach out To the God who answers.

Verse 1 Sa lansangaannn naglalakad..., walang patutunguhan Gutom ang tiyan, wala nang matitirahan Bata't matanda..., nag-aagawan sa pagkain Habang ang mayayaman, ang luho'y nalilimutaaann... Chorus: Luha ng kahirapan, tumulo saking pisngi Sa bawat pagsubok, puso'y nanghihinaaaaa Pero ang pag-asa ko, hindi kailanman mamamatay Hanggang sa makamit ko, ang aking pangarap Kahit mahirap, basta’t magkakasama, Ang saya ng pamilya, tunay na yamaaaan. Kaysa mangarap salapi, puno ng gulo, Mas mabuti ng simpleng, masayang buhaaaay, Verse 2 Tayo ay hindi kasing yaman, tulad ng iba sapagkat mayaman naman tayo, sa saya ng ating pamilya, Hindi hadlang ang ating kahirapan, sa mga pagsubok ng ating dinadaanan. Tayo ay magiging masaya kahit hindi tayo kasing yaman.. Chorus: Luha ng kahirapan, tumulo saking pisngi Sa bawat pagsubok, puso'y nanghihina Pero ang pag-asa ko, hindi kailanman mamamatay Hanggang sa makamit ko, ang aking pangarap Kahit mahirap, basta’t magkakasama, Ang saya ng pamilya, tunay na yaman. Kaysa mangarap salapi, puno ng gulo, Mas mabuti ang simpleng, masayang buhay, Outro: Sa kabila ng hirap, may pag-asa pa rin Sa aking puso, ang apoy ng pagmamahal, di kailanman mamamatay Hanggang sa makita ko, ang liwanag ng bagong umaga At malaya na ako, sa sakit ng kahirapan

[Verse] Golden light through the trees Long shadows dancing in the breeze Whispers of what we can't seize In the evening's gentle squeeze [Verse 2] Footsteps on a dusty road Memories like a heavy load Sunset colors that implode In twilight's shimmering code [Chorus] Bittersweet moments slipping fast Long days that rarely last Holding onto summer's cast In the past Shadows are vast [Verse 3] Crickets sing their solemn tune Under the late summer moon Echoes of an afternoon Vanishing far too soon [Bridge] Fields of amber bathed in light Stars that pierce the velvet night Lost in august’s quiet sight Fading slow Out of sight [Verse 4] Hearts adrift in warm embrace Lost in time A fleeting grace Summer's ghost we still chase In the wind's forgotten trace

Belgium, oh Belgium, the heart of it all! Chocolate, waffles, and beer, so tall! From Brussels to Bruges, you’re a gem we adore, Come and explore, there’s so much more

From the alleys of Baldur’s Gate, where shadows dance and schemes are spun, A lass was born with a silver tongue, beneath the ever-setting sun. Her cloak of green, it swirls and flows, like whispers through the city’s core, With eyes that gleam like secrets kept, behold Amara Gildelore! Amara, oh Amara, a spinner of tales and dreams! Fortunes told, but none foretold the mischief in her schemes! Through taverns and bazaars she roams, a trickster to the core, Raise your glass to the Queen of Chance, Amara Gildelore! Her mother sold elixirs false, her father was a sly charade, They taught her well the art of charm, where fortunes rise and fates are made. She donned a veil, she told the stars, “Their futures lie within my lore,” And nobles knelt to her mystic guise—Amara Gildelore! Amara, oh Amara, a spinner of tales and dreams! Fortunes told, but none foretold the mischief in her schemes! Through taverns and bazaars she roams, a trickster to the core, Raise your glass to the Queen of Chance, Amara Gildelore! She’ll read your cards with a smirk so sly, weave tales of doom and glory. But when she’s gone, you’ll clutch your coin, and laugh at the twisted story. For she’s no thief, just a jester bold, who lives for the play, not the score. A wandering star, a fleeting flame—Amara Gildelore! Amara, oh Amara, a spinner of tales and dreams! Fortunes told, but none foretold the mischief in her schemes! Through taverns and bazaars she roams, a trickster to the core, Raise your glass to the Queen of Chance, Amara Gildelore! So if you spy her in the crowd, her moss-green cloak, her knowing grin, Beware the charm, the laugh, the dance—it’s a game you’ll never win. But life’s too short to play it safe; let her spin her tales once more, And toast the star of Baldur’s Gate—Amara Gildelore! Amara, oh Amara, a spinner of tales and dreams! Fortunes told, but none foretold the mischief in her schemes! Through taverns and bazaars she roams, a trickster to the core, Raise your glass to the Queen of Chance, Amara Gildelore!

[Verse] Climbing up the rugged peak Finds you more than words can speak Whispers of the ancient thrill In the mountains echoes fill [Verse 2] Mist rolls down in waves of green Nature paints a quiet scene Shadowed valleys deep and still Secrets in the morning chill [Chorus] Sing the songs that mountains know Hear the echoes as they grow Feel the heartbeat of the land Mountains hold your spirit’s hand [Verse 3] Rivers carve their winding tales Flowing through the stony trails Birds above and skies so wide In the hills the world collides [Bridge] Lost in the echoing sound Peace and wonder here are found Standing tall on nature’s rise Mountains mirror to the skies [Chorus] Sing the songs that mountains know Hear the echoes as they grow Feel the heartbeat of the land Mountains hold your spirit’s hand

[Verse] Up high on the peak lives Skaio bold Guardian of secrets ancient and old With a laugh that echoes through the snow He’s the myth The legend That all men know [Chorus] Rise to the summit with your heart's fire Seek Skaio’s wisdom and his mighty ire Tread lightly where the giants roam In the mountain’s shadow that he calls home [Verse 2] Eagles fly and whisper his name Timber giants bow without shame Glaciers thrum to his thunderous tune Under the endless silvery moon [Chorus] Rise to the summit with your heart's fire Seek Skaio’s wisdom and his mighty ire Tread lightly where the giants roam In the mountain’s shadow that he calls home [Bridge] His beard is woven with the threads of time His eyes glisten with eternal rhyme Hear his stories etched in the stone Skaio stands In a world all his own [Chorus] Rise to the summit with your heart's fire Seek Skaio’s wisdom and his mighty ire Tread lightly where the giants roam In the mountain’s shadow that he calls home

Verse 1 Beneath the boughs of the ancient tree, Where moonlight dances soft and free, A maiden fair with hair of gold, Her gaze a tale, her smile untold. Oh, knight in armor, heart so true, Do you dream of her, as she dreams of you? Chorus Oh, love, like rivers winding wide, Bound by stars and the ocean's tide, Through storm and shadow, bright you gleam, My heart, my flame, my only dream. Verse 2 Her song did weave through the twilight air, A spell of longing, sweet and rare. He rode through dusk, through bramble’s thorn, To find the love for whom he’s sworn. The fates may call, the seas may roar, Yet love shall lead him to her shore. Chorus Oh, love, like rivers winding wide, Bound by stars and the ocean's tide, Through storm and shadow, bright you gleam, My heart, my flame, my only dream. Bridge The willow whispers, "Do not part, For courage lives within the heart." No sword nor crown can bind the soul, When love’s sweet song becomes the goal. Verse 3 Now side by side, in dawn’s embrace, They find the world a gentler place. The minstrel sings of their love’s lore, A tale of longing, forevermore. Oh, let their vow in hearts take hold, A love more precious than kings’ gold. Final Chorus Oh, love, like rivers winding wide, Bound by stars and the ocean's tide, Through storm and shadow, bright you gleam, My heart, my flame, my only dream. Outro So raise the lute, let voices soar, For love’s sweet song shall evermore Be sung beneath the willow tree, Where hearts entwine in destiny.
