I sing of a people of Infinite beauty,
That matches their homelands, their mountains, their fields
The Known Worlde proclaims their devotion to duty,
And fears green and gold on their cotes and their shields.

The hues of the Outlands are full of rich meaning:
The White Stag fells foeman in battle so bold
The forests and mountains of a land ever greening,,
The deserts and grainfields more valued than gold.

Far in the south is the Chalice of toasting,
White Crescent, Bright Sunburst and Cup of Sweet Wine.
Traveler welcoming, guest ever hosting,
The strength of these people adds strength to Green Line.

A copse of strong Oak Trees abuts Argent Mountain.
The Scorpion’s War Host wears caps of great pride.
Dark waters flow freely from Blackest of Fountains
Past Blasted Tree to the Red Tower’s side.

The hues of the Outlands are full of rich meaning:
The White Stag fells foeman in battle so bold
The forests and mountains of a land ever greening,
The deserts and grainfields more valued than gold.

A well armored River and Eagle most able,
A murex tinged Dragon who’s laying at rest,
A field of rich Gold battled chief of dark Sable,
These signs mark the shields of the warriors best.

The Harp of pure gold will proclaim Outland’s story,
And well-built Portcullis keeps land safe and free,
Black Gryphon, Red Dragon, in battle earn glory.
A sheaf of red arrows cut down raiders who flee.

The hues of the Outlands are full of rich meaning:
The White Stag fells foeman in battle so bold
The forests and mountains of a land ever greening,
The deserts and grainfields more valued than gold.

I sing of a people of Infinite beauty,
That matches their homelands, their mountains, their fields
The Known Worlde proclaims their devotion to duty,
And fears green and gold on their cotes and their shields.

The hues of the Outlands are full of rich meaning:
The White Stag fells foeman in battle so bold
The forests and mountains of a land ever greening,,
The deserts and grainfields more valued than gold.
