This is a song done by "The Voice of the Turtle", a group
in An Tir. I know the tune but am unable to reproduce it.
It was, as I recall, written for the Falshire Faire, an early
faire in An Tir. It's a lovely song and I wish I could reproduce
the melody for you.

Falshire Faire

'Twas deep in the forest of green and mist
Where a knight clad in armor and shield
His lance tilted high and his sword close by
Came forth to the tournament field.

Come you with me to the hill country
To a place in the shade of the trees
Come join me there at the Falshire Faire
Where time is whenever you please.

The dancers were circling, their hands all joined
As the knight watched them gaily go round
One maiden was there who was passing fair
And she caused his heart to bound.

Come dance with me in the hill country
All under the flowering trees.
Come dance with me there at the Falshire Faire
Where time is whenever you please.

He came to the maid when the dance had played
And he made her an offer so fine
Come you hand in hand to the merchants stand
And a scarf of fine silk shall be thine.

Fine scarves to wear for your lady fair
You'll never see finer than these
Fine scarves to wear at the Falshire Faire
Where time is whenever you please.

Then straight to the tourney field strode this knight
And issued a challenge so bold.
If any man round seeks the victor's crown
Step forth your claim to uphold.

So sword and shield in the hill country
All under the towering trees.
But none was there at the Falshire Faire
Could bring this bold knight to his knees.

Then straight to his lady this knight did go.
Bestow me your favor said he.
I'll not love you only for fighting sir
But write me a song and I'll see.

Come sing me a song of the hill country
Of a place in the shade of the trees.
And I'll join you there at the Falshire Faire
Where time is whenever you please.
