[BotRH] Jak O' the Shadows

[Lanette]

**to the man out of my reach**

 

 

If I could have one wish come true,

I'd wish for a chance to be with you -

one perfect day before I go

to dance with Jak O'the Shadows

 

In that perfect day I'd awake

to see your eyes like deep blue lakes

And I'd smile as my bow I take

in my dance with Jak O'the Shadows

 

I'd let you see all that I feel inside -

the love for you that in my heart I hide,

with words and touch, before I ride

to dance with Jak O'the Shadows

 

In the moonlight I'd hold you tight

On wings of passion we'd ride the night

and I'd ride out with the morning light

to my last dance with Jak O'the Shadows

[Jeannaisais]

A new language I do plan to learn,

and hopefully none will ever spurn,

this path that caused a turn,

to a strange dance with Jak 'O the Shadows.

 

I may have very little time,

to meet new friends or even make a rhyme,

yet here I am holding a lime,

before a dance with Jak 'O the Shadows.

 

Through earth and sky and sea,

the sound of the Band will comfort thee,

along with a good old mug of Brew Tea,

during a dance with Jak 'O the Shadows.

[Guest Cadsuane]

Trying to call the principal of a school

At the end of the year during exams isn't cool

They're too busy and I feel like a fool

I'd rather dance with Jak o' the Shadows

 

For not responding to my email

I think they all should just fail

From my irritation they will quail

In my dance with KEP o' the Shadows

 

I just need some information

So I can get this d*mn form done

And leave to go play in the sun

'Ere I dance with Jak o' the Shadows

 

The Kinder database drives me crazy

And the programmer is too lazy

To fix the bugs that make it hazy

I'll send her to sleep with Jak o' the Shadows

 

:evil:

[goldeneys]

A couple verses about Jak's evil wife

 

Jak had a girl on his knee

A light lover or so thought he

They danced all night and then said she

Teach me the dance of Jak O' the Shadows

 

He taught her and then they did wed

She got in with him to bed

Then she stabbed him in the head

She knew the dance of Jak O' the Shadows

 

 

And a couple about the evil RA that made me do them.

 

One fine day in the middle of the night

Poor little Heli got up to fight

Said "I can't see without some light"

She can’t dance Jak O' the Shadows

 

Poor little Heli stumbled around

She fell and broke her nose on the ground

Goldy looked at her and frowned

She can’t dance with Jak O’ the Shadows

[Jeannaisais]

Chocolate Rooms I did create,

and many brownies I ate,

by then I was far too late,

to have a dance with Jak 'O the Shadows.

 

I often seem to be absent a mind,

or perhaps I just became lost in time,

either way I'll be sure to dine,

before dancing with Jak 'O the Shadows.

[Odette]

With contempt I stare at eyes of Mara

An absurd feat, I intend to para-

rhyme orange. Unmatched I'll be this era.

Oranges! Oranges! with Jack O' the Shadows.

 

For fun. The impossible rhyme. Orange!

Pointed is this verse, just like a syringe

I'll do it again, pararhyme! Lozenge!

Pararhyming with Jack O' the Shadows.

 

^_^

That was fun.

[Guest Cadsuane]

Clever girl... 8)

[Lanette]

*applauds*

 

very good!

[Odette]

^_^.. Thanks! You guys are far to nice to me! ^_^

 

 

Ash sent me an Old Tongue dictionary... I probably messed up completely, but...

 

 

 

 

Iro dai carai an Shen an Calhar.

Din e dar sa algai cuebiyar.

Hei aiel’aes algai an Shaidar.

Dovenyia far Jak an Shadar’an

[Adrian44]

When I dream, I always dream of you

Standing beside me on the edge of view

With lance in hand, we say adieu

and Dance with the Jak o' the shadows

 

As we start our charge we embrace our fate

Never filled with fear or lost in hate

We have already passed death's black gate

When we Dance with the Jak o' the shadows.

 

And in the end I see you down

Upon the red stained grassy ground

with hundreds of slain enemies around

You Dance well with the Jak o' the shadows.

[Kristine]

We'll drink a toast to days gone by,

And tell a joke so we'll not cry,

And fight the fight until we die

To dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

 

The piper’s call the battle to advance,

We answer the call with sword and lance

String the bow and rally the stance

To dance with Jak o' the Shadows."

 

In the band we work and play

Dancing all night at the end of day

Telling tales is what we say

Of how we danced with Jak O the Shadows

 

The valant deeds we once have done

The battle faught, our regiment Won

And we sit and joke on how the others run

when we are faced with Jak O the Shadows

 

When darkness falls and battles cool,

When swords are again just a tool,

We can take the time to play a fool,

To drink with Jak o' the Shadows.

 

So raise a glass and sing a song,

We are of to fight but won’t be long,

We’re the band forever are strong

To toil with Jak o' the Shadows.

[Shauna]

The night air may be chilly and damp,

I sit and read by the light of a lamp

And sip on a bandy brew in the camp

For a dance with Jak O' the Shadows

[Leane_Shariff]

Awesome Shauna!! That's perfect :D

[Shauna]

I'm really glad you like it, Leane

[Lanette]

*applauds*

 

Lovely verse Shauna!

[Shauna]

Why, thank you *hugs Lanette*

[Guest Cadsuane]

I watch the time fly by so fast

And wonder if it all will last

Knowing you has been such a blast

In our dance with Jak o' the Shadows

 

Once a recruit, now an RLO

Learning the ropes, learning the flow

of this great Band that I do love so

Great allies against Jak o' the Shadows

[Guest Froix]

Struck with dreams of honor and glory

I signed with the Band of the Red Hand army

All I've cared for, I've left behind me

waiting for my dance with Jak o' the Shadows

 

Time passed slowly, a month has passed

My training's done, the dye is cast

I've made my choice, It won't be the last

Waiting for my dance with Jak o' the Shadows

 

continued on my next post

[woolhead]

So why you ask are the archers so great?

My my that question carries quite the weight

To the point where I'm questioning my state ???

As I Dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

 

Now is where they hold a knife to my throat

No worries though, I've got it all by rote!

Here it goes, it's time to start, now I quote...

Oh, the Dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

 

First things first, archers are just fun to incite and annoy

The way they get flustered just makes you wanna jump for joy

And Caddy oh Caddy, she's pretty much The Helen of Troy

As she throws stuff at Jak o' the Shadows.

 

Now now, for a bunch of army chicks they sure are nice smelling

But what gets me is Northie's spelling! :P

Along with V's and Gus' and Danya's and Odette's and Lanette's and Chaelca's yelling ;D

While I run with Jak o' the Shadows.

 

But what's greatest and puts them all to shame

I beat them at their own game! (except for you Northie, who I tied ;))

I better quit now to avoid any maim

Oh to beat Jak o' the Shadows.

 

So who to choose now, that was the choice

Now I know what I'm supposed to say here...

But I won't let the devil steal my voice!

I chose the Inf. so REJOICE...with ol' Jak.

[woolhead]

Oh archers oh archers, how I wish I had you

When I made my choice I had the flu

Atleast I can still come for the view...

As I sit here deceiving ol' Jak o' the Shadows.

[nighteyes]

Northie stands with Volitus Nex

following orders she's like a hex

marking enemies she sends the next

to join with Jak o'the shadows

 

Low wind rising hanging aside

the body of Blade hath not died

hes standing up ready to ride

to dance with Jak o' the shadows

[Odette]

I'm as dark as hell, I'm darker by far.

I'm darker underneath, dark as tar.

I'm darker by far, you know who you are.

Dark as a night with Jak O' the Shadows.

 

Skin's so damn brown but the sun it don't see.

Darker inside but don't listen to me.

I'm wasting, jealous of those on TV.

Darkness abounds with Jak O' the Shadows.

Inspired in part from a song I heard.

[Guest Froix]

...

 

Talks of battle then caught my ear

The Shadow's beasts are somewhere near

Half man, half beast they say, I fear

Waiting for my dance with Jak o' the Shadows

 

Just as I thought my dreams would rot

We marched to where most men dare not

Staying clear of the Trolloc's cookpot

We danced with Jak o' the Shadows

 

...

[Lanette]

Hey, Great Odds & Fro!!!

[Auld Manriva]

A pirate's free as the Bounding Main,

A life so full of joy and pain

But naught so full till once again

He can dance with Jack O' the Shadows

 

So lash yer ship into her berth

Take rest from skidding 'round the Earth

For you can't know what life is worth

Till you spit'n the eye o' Jack of the Shadows

 

First stab at this :roll:
