The Sable Banner
Composed by Master Peter of Dun Calma



(Sung to the tune of The Bonny Blue Flag)

We are a band of fighters, call us The Fray, we say

Fighting for our Kingdom, makes us happy in every way

And when our Kingdom was threatened, the cry rose near and far

Huzzah for the sable banner that bears a single star


Chorus:

Huzzah! Huzzah! For fair Caid huzzah!

Huzzah for the sable banner that bears a single star!


The first is now the Captain, he formed this noble band

Then came his Saxon Lieutenant, who stands by his left hand

Next came Tim and Kalvin, and others by the score

All raised on high the sable banner that bears a single star


Chorus:

Huzzah! Huzzah! For fair Caid huzzah!

Huzzah for the sable banner that bears a single star!

 

Many others have followed, and are linked to us by fate

They are bound to us by mighty oaths, all others will have to wait

Impelled by our example, other groups, they now prepare

To hoist on high the sable banner that bears a single star


Chorus:

Huzzah! Huzzah! For fair Caid huzzah!

Huzzah for the sable banner that bears a single star!


And here's to our assembly, for strong we are and brave

Like heroes of old we'll fight, our Kingdom for to save

And rather than withdraw in fear, to die we would prefer

So cheer for the sable banner that bears a single star


Chorus:

Huzzah! Huzzah! For fair Caid huzzah!

Huzzah for the sable banner that bears a single star!
