Ode to Argonia

[Deeza]

I hope you enjoy this little patriotic opus, courtesy of the Royal Court's ministry of public education (ahem):

Land of still waters past compare,
Nation of merged seas and land,
Thou shalt rise if but thy people dare,
From mangrove coasts to Topal sand.

Whilst other nations cleave to stone,
Thy fens and glades are yours alone,
Like a great gem set in the world,
O land of swirling mists unfurled!

(chorus)
Rise, O land of ten thousand streams!
Achieve thy Tamrielic dreams!
Become what was ordained to be,
A glorious nation rimmed by sea!

Thy ancient days of dark are past,
With each new day comes great advance,
Where once hunted crude folk of old,
Plantations bloom a thousand fold!

Gone now the matted huts of grass,
Arise, cities of wood, steel, glass!
Unto new heights now soars thy land,
Under the Empire's guiding hand.

(chorus)
Rise, O land of ten thousand streams!
Achieve thy Tamrielic dreams!
Become what was ordained to be,
A glorious nation rimmed by sea!

The gleams of Magnus' bright fire,
Shine boldly from thy shimmering mire,
Barbaric ways are doomed to halt,
Before the might of thy wise Royal Court.

No King sits upon thy mossy throne,
'Mongst all nations thou stand alone,
Ruled by the wise in the Emperor's name,
Glory thou once had shall be thine again!

(chorus)
Rise, O land of ten thousand streams!
Achieve thy Tamrielic dreams!
Become what was ordained to be,
A glorious nation rimmed by sea!
