"AND THEIR CROSS' ARE FLASHING." | March of The Order of St. Tylos

[Sarven 1716]

 

“UND IHR KREUZ BLINKT.”

“AND THEIR CROSS' ARE FLASHING.”

March of The Order of St. Tylos

Compiled in the year of our Lord 1954 by Gottfried Barclay

Composed by Yvian Ritter Galken

 

 

 

 

Composed by the late Sir Yvian Ritter Galken during his latter years as Herrenmeister, following his coming age and his failing strength he never finished it before passing on. The song sings of the strong bonds of The Order of St Tylos, of their great code, and might. The song was later compiled and finally released by myself, Gottfried Barclay in the aftermath of the successful siege of Brasca Keep.

 

Thus are the translated lyrics of the song, sung a new by the ritters old and new, of  The Order of Saint Tylos in the Waldenic tognue:

 

The iron fist on the lance shaft,

The reins in the left,

That's how Tylos' knighthood advances,

And their cross' are flashing.

Heja heja heja! Heja!

And their cross' are flashing.

Heja heja heja! Heja!

And their cross' are flashing.

 

The cross patte, in black it flies,

Forwards on a background of green and white,

Lost but undefeated,

That's how it announces its message.

Heja heja heja! Heja!

That's how it announces its message.

Heja heja heja! Heja!

That's how it announces its message.

 

It flutters bright in the morning breeze

And greets the Franklands,

Greets those who are our brethern,

In spite of humilation, distress and shame.

Heja heja heja! Heja!

In spite of humilation, distress and shame.

Heja heja heja! Heja!

In spite of humilation, distress and shame.

 

It flies ahead in the knight's cloak

And encourages us to fight,

For the lost glory,

Therefore fly pennants, we ride.

Heja heja heja! Heja!

Therefore fly pennants, we ride.

Heja heja heja! Heja!

Therefore fly pennants, we ride.

Sir Peter Stroheim stands in awe at the late Herrenmeister's beautiful composal, immediately beginning a search for a flute.

[Jensen02 200]

As Sir Stanton von Stroheim stood upon the ruined walls of Brasca Keep he looked around for his fellow ritters. Upon seeing his brethren survived the fight he raised his sword over the snapped horns of his helmet and cheered "HEJA HEJA HEJA"

"I'm so proud of all of them! This is fantastic!" mused Avalon of Formindon, who unfortunately had to stay home and tend to the many children

[Morphine 457]

Roland von Sturmweber, having recovered his Animii hand from a most trusted Coalition comrade, listened closely at the sound of this wonderful piece being played in the streets of Kanunsberg. It was pure bliss.

 

[GoodGuyMatt 7065]

Herzog Leon Barclay smiled the sun's smile upon seeing the continued musical Reinmaren tradition within Minitz

[ViewerDiscretion_ 120]

Sir Varik Sturmweber will certainly be unable to keep himself from humming this captivating melody.
