New words by Gabbai Da'ud ibn Ibrahim al-Sisari, called Dawi original words at bottom

Sing Calontir, sing for the vic'try won
Sing for the cry of "Eichmann!" as it rolls across the field
Six warriors in the vanguard with their mighty greatswords flashing
Sing for the Oak and sons
Sing for the falcon flying o'er a hill of foemen's bone,
Sing for your heroes have come home.

Sing Calontir, sing for your rising might
Sing for the five Sir Duncans, their swords glitt'r'ing in the light
Fighting in the forefront all in thrall to war's delight
Sing for your might in arms
Sing for the falcon flying o'er a hill of foemen's bone,
Sing for your heroes have come home.

Sing Calontir, sing for Their Majesties
Sing for Lucian Caesar marching armies on to war
Sing for mighty squirr'l Tamara, she the bards inspiring
Sing for the King and Queen
Sing for the falcon flying o'er a hill of foemen's bone,
Sing for your heroes have come home.

Sing Calontir, sing for the shieldwall strong
Sing for the height of Half-Troll 'longside she The Mouse That Roars
Sing for the axe of Donngal and for Ariel golden-clawed
Sing for the Calon host
Sing for the falcon flying o'er a hill of foemen's bone,
Sing for your heroes have come home.

Sing Calontir, sing for the noble youth
Sing for our White Diamonds, charging hard upon the flank
Spearpoints dripping foe-blood as they hold back enemy ranks
Sing for the warriors young
Sing for the falcon flying o'er a hill of foemen's bone,
Sing for your heroes have come home.

Sing Calontir, sing for your Fyrdmen fierce
Sing for the bloody Huscarls leading heedless into fray
Sing for the Soup Kitchen, feeding us at end of day
Sing for the water borne
Sing for the falcon flying o'er a hill of foemen's bone,
Sing for your heroes have come home.

Sing Calontir, sing for the Great Gulf War
Sing for the noble story you have written with your swords
May it never be forgotten while your voices carry words
Sing for your great renown
Sing for the falcon flying o'er a hill of foemen's bone,
Sing for your heroes have come home.
