Blade bright was the summer sun Dust ruled the killing field Hard eyed were the foes she faced Her will her strongest shield
[Refrain] Then Six times down, six times up the warrior’s risen To hold the line for comrades And bring honor to her King Only one small heart with a will that can’t be broken The shining light of Cleftlands drives the foeman from the field
Cleftlands charge was sow the lines With mayhem, death and pain So allies could win through the fight And precious ground to gain Good Cleftlands Knights they led that charge Yet fell upon that plain Still from despair there rose a heart Who knew where duty lay
[Refrain]
Down she went and up she rose, to Cleftlands rousing cheer Reforming with her comrades whose lives she held so dear Those who can bear witness say she could with honor yield But as long as brothers fought the fight She rose to swing her steel For many fight for glory, for the thrill or for the Crown But true warriors know that victory lies In not letting comrades down [Refrain]
