Song of Elturel

"A song of Elturel" was a song about the city of Elturel in the latter part of the 15 century DR.

History
It was sung in Elvish by the ghostly elf spirit of the Elfsong Tavern in Baldur's Gate in the after the descent of Elturel into Avernus. Notably, this was the only time it was heard to change its tune.

Lyrics
"O sing a song of Elturel Of water, woods, and hill The sun dawns on her ruddy cliffs And fields green and still. This land of long-abiding joy Home of the strong and brave Renowned by all, across the realms, And never once a slave. O sing a song of Elturel When foes are at her door Her fields torn by cloven feet From some infernal shore. Arise the mighty Hellriders Take up your swift, keen swords Then charge into the hellish fray And scatter devil hordes. O sing a song of Elturel And when the night does fall Sleep safe beneath Companion's light Until the dawn does call. We're bound by mortal covenant That only ends with death And so we'll sing of Elturel Until our final breath."
