DRAGONMOUNT

A WHEEL OF TIME COMMUNITY

It's known to the Band IC; if memory serves, the explanation for the Band knowing it is due to a founding member being a bard at one point in his/her life. If I'm remembering wrong, it's still going to be the official explanation from now on.

He he he, the perks of being group leader...

Ok, I won't get Arkin to bring it in then, but he'll more thank likely be writing some verses for it next time soemthing epic happens. :)

We'll drink the wine till the cup is dry,

And kiss the girls so they'll not cry,

And toss the dice until we fly,

To dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

We'll dance all night until the moon runs free,

And dandle the lasses upon our knee,

And then you'll ride along with me,

To dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

We'll sing all night, and drink all day,

And on the girls we'll spend our pay,

And when it's gone, then we'll away,

To dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

There's some delight in ale and wine,

And some in girls with ankles fine,

But my delight, yes, always mine,

Is to dance with Jak o' the Shadows. [1] The third verse was sung differently in LOC 5. Below are the different lyrics.

We drink all night and dance all day,

and on the girls we spend our pay,

and when we're done, then we'll away,

to dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

 

 

An extra stanza was added by the Band of the Red Hand after the defeat of the Shaido at Cairhien in honor of Mat.

We'll toss the dice however they fall,

And snuggle the girls be they short or tall,

Then follow young Mat whenever he calls,

To dance with Jak o' the Shadows.

Some time after adding the extra stanza, the Band changed "young" to "Lord," much to Mat's annoyance.
