Bud of Winter (Song)

Part of Folk Songs of Juhnvechteya
This song was written to heighten the mood in Mibram, in the winter of 614. The Johannists in the Ishtar pocket of resistance were forced to attack the country north of Kredewe in order to stop an attack on Mibram, but the offensive was very costly in both lives and resources, many of whom died in the harsh winter conditions or from starvation. The figs of Caarl refer to an old tale about revenge, where king Caarl of Brzana was poisoned by his own figs, and his son set off to burn all the fig trees in his realm, only to find that the cook had poisoned his food. The Koorelan were a group of knights who fought to maintain order during the 2nd anarchy and famously fought the evil of Joraje. The tusk refers to the boar, a Felzmuž often seen as a brute and ignorant. 
Oh towers of stone are falling! 
Into clay and dust! 
The mighty bite of winter, 
Spreads among the just!
Brymburk’s streets are blazing! 
Fight for day and dusk! 
These old hands are shaking, 
Piercéd by the tusk!
The figs of Caarl and the Koorelan! 
The fight is not yet won! 
But weaken shield my halberd can, 
And weigh but less a ton! 
Oh silver lands of glory! 
Hope is not yet lost! 
No shields do break or splinter, 
Hard’ning in the frost!
My heart still burns of honour, 
Soaring in the mud! 
And may we all fire brightly, 
Ripening like the bud!
