A king has summoned all the lords and powers of the realm A harvest feast to celebrate the bounties of the year Men pack the halls and women flock, to entertain the mass
They feast and drink and fornicate, for winter's nearly here The king stands all and welcomes all, raising a glass of cheer He bids his men to feast away and drink Drink until the dawn
Tales of old are boldly told, by torchlight burning bright The quests and deeds of yesterday, we will relive tonight
Welcome all to the gathering of kings Fill your stein As our time passes by Raise your glass into the sky Pound it back for those who have died Drink hard For the kingdom is ours tonight
The autumn sun will rise and fill the halls of darkened souls In company of friends we drink and remember ones we lost The year's been hard, men battle-scarred, we carry through their days But now we celebrate their lives and drink Drink until the dawn
