Deyna the Warrior

Egburt's version of Boorab's feast song in The Taggerung:

Ho welcome to the feast, you beast,
I hopes you tip an' fall,
I've got a fat grandpa, ha ha ha,
Who'll prob'ly eat it all.
The lark defends his feathery chest,
The sun has sank into his vest,
If he don't bathe before too long,
There'll be an awful pong...
Warriors brave, who gave all you could give,
Offered your lives so that others would live,
No one can tell what my heart longed to say
When I had to leave here, and you had to stay.

-The Long Patrol, page 312

Well, for one:
Spoiler
Romsca's challenge in Pearls of Lutra:
Quote from: Romsca, Pearls of LutraI'm the babe of a bloodripper,
Born in the teeth of a gale,
I'm the one who wields the sword,
An' makes the foebeast wail.
I'm as sharp as the reef rock,
I carry death in me paw,
Go where I like, slay who I will,
That's the corsairs' law!
Blood's me favourite colour,
Swifter'n lightnin' aye,
Stand out me way, stand out I say,
Step aside now, or die!
'Cos I'm the spawn o' nightstorm,
An' death sails in me wake,
I sheath me blade in innards,
An' what I want, I take!
Come one, come all, I'm waitin',
I'll flay yer carcass bare,
So everyplace I go they'll say,
" 'Ahoy, you bold corsair!"


Also Guja's song:

Quote from: Guja, Pearls of LutraIf there's plunder in the offin'
That's fer me, that's fer me,
An' I never charge, I'll kill you all for free,
Give me lots o' lovely loot,
An' a cask o' grog ter boot,
Up the anchor, loose the sails an' let me go!

For some reason, I couldn't stop laughing when I read that part of the book. Definitely my favorite.
Life is often like pushing a luggage cart through the airport. Sometimes I feel ridiculous, sometimes I look ridiculous, but I just keep pushing that luggage cart, and hoping I'm generally heading in the right direction.
Always keep your word, always finish what you started, and never go unprepared.
In a hole in the ground, there once lived a hobbit.
It's your birthday today, everybeast say hooray, there's a cat licking your birthday cake, it's your birthday today!
Long live the RRR!

The goose riddle song in Mossflower. (So fly and sing the wildgoose is king.)
Error. Error. Cannot compute.

You mean this one?
Spoiler
Twixt earth and sky where birds can fly,
I look below to see
A place of wood with plumage green
That breezes move like sea
Behind me as the dawn breaks clear,
Woodpigeons come awake.
See brown dust roll, twixt green and gold,
Unwinding like a snake.
So fly and sing, the wildgoose is King.
Over golden acres far below,
Our wings beat strong and true,
Where deep and wet, see flowing yet,
Another snake of blue.
Across the earth is changing shape
With form and color deep,
Afar the teeth of land rise up,
To bite the wool of sheep.
So fly and sing, the wildgoose is King.
Beyond this, much is lost in mist,
But here and there I see
The treachery of muddy gray,
Tis no place for the free.
Oh feathered brethren of the air,
Fly straight and do not fall,
Onward cross the wet gold flat,
Where seabirds wheel and call.
So fly and sing, the wildgoose is King.
The skies are growing darker, see
Our beacon shining bright.
Go high across the single fang
That burns into the night.
We leave you now as we wing on,
Our journey then must be
Where sky and water meet in line,
And suns drown in the sea.
So fly and sing, the wildgoose is King.

I think I like most of Gonff's stuff the most. They are fun and have good lyrics. I do also like the poem/song in Rakkety Tam for each different chapter/act/section/whatevertheyarecalled

Book.
And yes, I also love Gonff's songs.

(He totally should have made one up when he was dancing with that crab! ;D)
