Eulogy for Sakara

Gone to Shadows, gone into the night
Gone from pain and suffering and sorrow
Gone to join the army of another
Leaving us behind to mourn his death

Never will we see his face again
Never hear him singing in the morrow
Never to return - served well his time
May all gods smile and keep him well this night

With him lay down his sword of brandished steel
With him lay down the broken bloodied shield
With him we loose a fighter bold and true
And I a valiant friend, true to the death

You always were a cliff to lean upon
You always separated right from wrong
You always could see clearly through the clouds
Saw light in darkness, right through to the end

Lead the steel grey legion on its' way
Lead, as if it were your own batallion!
Lead, and wait, for surely we'll be there
We'll follow you until the end of time

Farewell, it's time to take our last farewells
Farewell, until we meet again my friend
Farewell, and fare thee well upon your way
Dark is falling - walk your way in love

Raise the banner - fly it in the wind!
Raise the torch - to light his funeral pyre!
Raise battle cries - to send him on his way!
Let all the world behold his glory!
