Talk:Karelia's Song

I wasn't sure where to place this, but its too good not to be able to be found somewhere!

Iolo's Song
Iolo's Song is a parody of Iolo's Karelia's Song by Brendan O Corraidhe from Nordskogen

Lyrics

 * Down in Brwyn Gwlad town lives a jolly good fellow,
 * Whose figure is really a comical sight.
 * For his forehead is bald, and his eyes will amaze you,
 * and his gold-colored codpiece is really quite bright.
 * He wears baggy pants, and a ragged old tunic,
 * His shoes give his tootsies a room with a view.
 * And he acts very silly, and does antler dances,
 * And answers when summoned, by the name "Master Moo".
 * His real name is Iolo, Don Iolo Fitzowen.
 * His white sash and Laurel are both well deserved.
 * For he'll build you a crossbow like those in museums,
 * Or thrash you at swashbuckling without reserve.
 * He's a shaper of wood, and of bone and of leather,
 * A shaper of souls with a word to the wise.
 * He has carved standing stones to remember the fallen,
 * and he'll sing you a song to bring tears to your eyes.
 * Of the Great Selkie's bride, and a cruel lass name Jenny,
 * Karelia's lover and Merddyn's gay flute.
 * And the old standing stones, and a host of Welsh heroes,
 * Spring once more to life when he picks up his lute.
 * He's a craftsman, composer, a fool and a fighter,
 * A good friend to many, he'll come when you call.
 * And he'll dance in the garden, and sing in the moonlight,
 * Like a nightingale piping in a green forest hall.
