Volkmar and Isadora
Filled our halls with cheer
Volkmar and Isadora
When they ruled Calontir.

Volkmar was our Calon king
So many years ago
He ruled these lands in Twenty-Four
In the season of the snow.
Isadora she sat by his side
As Queen upon the throne.
She brought Joy into our weary hearts,
They were Calontir to the bone.

Volkmar and Isadora
Filled our halls with cheer
Volkmar and Isadora
When they ruled Calontir.

Volkmar was a Huscarl
When he won the Calon Crown
On a misty day in the month of May
That night storm winds blew down
Soon after he was knighted
At the Lily War
And all good folk were witness
To the solemn oath he swore.

Volkmar and Isadora
Filled our halls with cheer
Volkmar and Isadora
When they ruled Calontir.

Isadora was a Seneschal
Of these Calon Lands
She upheld the word of law
With a gold key in her hands
And those folk who saw her work
Were never at a loss
When at a Beltaine cold
She won the Calon Cross.

Volkmar and Isadora
Filled our halls with cheer
Volkmar and Isadora
When they ruled Calontir.
