"Days of old," I tell my restless mind

Searching mountains, fields, and meadows green

What is it my heart can hope to find

All I long for I have never seen

Tales of glory written in the dust

Tapestries of deepest purple gold

Legends carved in stone tell me I must

Journey through the mist and bitter cold

Seeking in the corners of the earth

My companions I have never known

Blindly running forth, is honor worth

Endless hours of silence spent alone?

Chorus:

But in this brotherhood I still believe

And for the ones we've lost my soul will grieve

Yet through the world alone I wander for I know somewhere

I will find my brothers, by the sword I swear

In my memory awakening

Like a dream too sweet to cast away

Shadows of the past begin to sing

Calling out to me in their gallant way

Come away with us brother in arms

Through the seas of silver, fields of gold

Join us as we battle those who harm

And fight with valour as in days of old

Chorus

Seeking in the corners of the earth

My companions I have never known

Blindly running forth, is honor worth

Endless hours of silence spent alone?

Chorus

Rescue damsels fine and maidens fair

Free the noble who have done no wrong

Though it seems the world may little care

Some are left that to the Round belong

Chorus

But in this brotherhood we still believe

And for the ones we've lost our souls will grieve

Yet through the world alone we wander for we know somewhere

We will find our brothers, by the sword we swear

By the sword I swear

I will find my brothers

I will find my sisters

I will find my brothers

I will find my sisters

By the sword I swear
