Not Quite Dead Posted June 25, 2017 Report Share Posted June 25, 2017 (edited) *CrrRRWioouuuuIIwrCrrr* ...n Aquilonia FM, we'll provide to you, ladies and gentlemen, the last hit in the Juba Kingdom: It might seem crazy what I'm about to say I know there's gods but I don't care too much I don't seek for Valhalla or such Fate in afterlife, it isn't my way. (Just like Amra) Feast along and you'll taste the juices of red meat (Just like Amra) Feast along and pick a girl, or an opponent, or a seat (Just like Amra) Feast along if you know what happiness is to you (Just like Amra) Feast along and you'll feel like that's all you wanna do Here come your laws, stating this and that (Meh!) Guards, give all you got, don't hold it back (Yeah!) Well, I should probably warn ya, I'll be just fine (Yeah!) I've fought worse than you, and you're only nine Mirth time! (Just like Amra) Drink along and you'll taste the sting of wine on your palate (Just like Amra) Drink along as much as I, we have time 'til the moonset (Just like Amra) Drink along if you know what happiness is to you (Just like Amra) Drink along and you'll feel like that's all you wanna do (Amra) Melancholy, begone (Amra) I'll rejoice, and it will be fine (Amra) Melancholy, begone (Amra) Begone, gone I said (Amra, Amra, Amra, Amra) Melancholy, begone (Amra, Amra, Amra, Amra) I'll rejoice, and it will be fine (Amra, Amra, Amra, Amra) Melancholy, begone (Amra, Amra, Amra, Amra) Begone, gone I said (Just like Amra) Fuck along and you'll taste the hot embrace of white arms (Just like Amra) Fuck along, look at these the girls: there's no end to their charms (Just like Amra) Fuck along if you know what happiness is to you (Just like Amra) Fuck along and you'll feel like that's all you wanna do {bis} (Amra, Amra, Amra, Amra) Melancholy, begone (Amra, Amra, Amra, Amra) I'll rejoice, and it will be fine (Amra, Amra, Amra, Amra) Melancholy, begone (Amra, Amra, Amra, Amra) Begone, gone I said (Just like Amra) Fight along and you'll taste the battle exultation (Just like Amra) Fight along and your blade will flame and will crimson (Just like Amra) Fight along if you know what happiness is to you (Just like Amra) Fight along and you'll feel like that's all you wanna do {bis} Crom on! Spoiler As a French-Speaker, to adapt a song in English is quite difficult. To my ears, it doesn't sound too bad, but... who knows! If you want to share a laugh by making a famous song sounding more Hyborian, this is the place for such stylistic exercise!

(Hit the pict Thak and don't show your back no more, no more, no more, no more.) (Hit the pict Thak and don't show your back no more.) Woah Conan, oh Conan, don't treat me so mean, You're the meanest strong human that I've ever seen. I guess if you said so I'd have to be watchful or go. (That's right) (Hit the pict Thak and don't show your back no more, no more, no more, no more.) (Hit the pict Thak and don't show your back no more.) I wanna play! (Hit the pict Thak and don't show your back no more, no more, no more, no more.) (Hit the pict Thak and don't show your back no more.) Now Conan, listen Conan, don't ya treat me this-a way Cause I'll be really useful some day. (Don't care if you do 'cause you're not a Hero) (show me your back again and you'll take an arrow.) Well, I guess if you say so I'd have to be watchful or go. (That's right) (Hit the pict Thak and don't show your back no more, no more, no more, no more.) (Hit the pict Thak and don't show your back no more.) I wanna play! (Hit the pict Thak and don't show your back no more, no more, no more, no more.) (Hit the pict Thak and don't show your back no more.) Well (don't show your back no more.) Just wanna play... (don't show your back no more.) I didn't understand you (don't show your back no more.) You can't mean that (don't show your back no more.) Oh, now Conan, please (don't show your back no more.) What you tryin' to do to me? (don't show your back no more.) Why, don't you let me take part? (don't show your back no more.) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Quite Dead Posted October 15, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2017 ...song is some kind of curiosity, as it's a patriotic song shared by rival kingdoms such as Nemedia, Argos, and Aquilonia, shortly written after the nemedian invasion in Aquilonia, and the return of King Conan on his throne. Nemedia was Acheron Now it's Nemedia, not Acheron Long time gone, old Acheron Necromancer dream in the moonlight Every mummy of Acheron Is now in Nemedia not Acheron So if you raise one in Acheron It will plot in Nemedia Even Belverus was once in Acheron Why the uprise I can't say People don't like bein' seen as prey. So we don't want back old Acheron None wants that but Xaltotun Long time gone, old Acheron, Why is Nemedia now in store? That's the work of our ancestors Nemedia (Nemedia) Nemedia (Nemedia) Even Tarantia was once in Acheron Why the uprise I can't say People don't like bein' seen as prey. Aquilonia was Acheron It's Aquilonia, not Acheron Long time gone, old Acheron Why is Aquilonia in store? That's the work of our ancestors So we don't want back old Acheron None wants that but Xaltotun Long time gone, old Acheron, Why is our Argos now in store? That's the work of our ancestors Nemedia/Aquilonia/Our Argos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Quite Dead Posted May 14, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 (edited) ...is a Nordheimer group of skalds, known for uplifting ballads, as is their song Does your mother know. At least it seems uplifting for Nordic folks. Poor fellows. You're so cute, chargin' at me With that sword, But I won't spare the life of a kid like you. It's something She wouldn't do. There's that look, in your eyes. I can read in your face That you're gonna end in Valhalla Although you're only a child. Well, you came all up here, sonny, Fencing like a blondie, Does your mother know that you're out? And you poured blood on snow, sonny, Yours or Vanir's maybe Does your mother know that you're out? Take it easy! (take it easy) Better slow down, boy: Heimdul is your foe. Does your mother know...? Take it easy! (take it easy) Try to cool it, boy, Put on a good show. Does your mother know...? I can see what you want, But you seem pretty young To be searching for that kind of fun, There's no way you'll be the one. Now you're so cute, I like your style, And I must say you can fight Like would do a grown-up man (man). But, boy, you're only a child. I'd like to hear your name, sonny, 'cause you're the last blondie. Does your mother know that you're out? In Vanaheim, I will, sonny, Drink to your soul maybe. Does your mother know that you're out? Take it easy! (take it easy) Better slow down, boy: Heimdul is your foe. Does your mother know...? Take it easy! (take it easy) Try to cool it, boy, Put on a good show. Does your mother know...? Well, seems that you killed me, sonny. Doesn't that sound funny? Does His daughter know that you're out? It's kinda hard to breathe, sonny... Rest a little maybe... Does His daughter know that you're out? Edited May 15, 2019 by Not Quite Dead Spelling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
