Leaving the night behind

Into daylight they ride

Guarding their homeland with pride

No one can hide from their sight

Night by night and day by day

They keep all strangers away

Under old, wise elms

In woods deep, timeless

Lies a hidden realm

In forest silence

Elven riders on

Silver unicorns

Watch each blade of grass

They let no stranger pass

No one gets past the guards

Leaving daylight behind

Into the night they ride

Guarding their homeland with pride

No one can hide from their sight

Night by night and day by day

They keep all strangers away

Though it happened once

On their festive day

Distraction of the guards

And utter disarray

When dragons in the sky

Beasts from afar

Appeared above the elms

Lost in the mist we entered the land of Elves

Unseen, unfelt

What a quaint coincidence

Leaving the night behind

Into daylight they ride

Guarding their homeland with pride

And we escaped from their sight

Night by night and day by day

We walk through their marvellous land

And time is fast running away

Yet much longer shall we stay
