to the tune of the song of the western men
written by kovio

A good sword and a trusty hand!
A faithful heart and true!
Queen Mystias's men shall understand
What Katar lads can do!
And have they fixed the where and when?
And shall Sikandar die?
Here's twenty thousand Katar men
Will know the reason why!

Chorus

And shall Sikandar live?
And shall Sikandar die?
Here's twenty thousand Katar men
Will know the reason why!

Out spake their Captain brave and bold:
A merry wight was he:
Though Einekyo Tower were Okarin's hold,
We'll set Sikandar free!
'We'll cross the world, land to land:
The Severn is no stay:
With “one and all,” and hand in hand;
And who shall bid us nay?

Chorus

And shall Sikandar live?
And shall Sikandar die?
Here's twenty thousand Katar men
Will know the reason why!

And when we come to Einekyo Wall,
A pleasant sight to view,
Come forth! come forth! ye cowards all:
Here's men as good as you.
'Sikandar he's in keep and hold;
Sikandar he may die:
Here's twenty thousand Katar bold
Will know the reason why

Chorus

And shall Sikandar live?
And shall Sikandar die?
Here's twenty thousand Katar men
Will know the reason why!
