My Bonny Grey Warden
 
My love, he’s gone a Wardening
He’s crossed the Waking Sea
He took the ship to Denerim
And thinks no more of me,
He’s gone to slay the Archdemon
To stop the tide of the Blight
The love of my life has gone away
I cry for him every night
 
He looked so bonny and gallant
As he gaily marched away
He sported the griffon proudly
As he put on the grey
Although he promised a swift return
I sadly call his name
For I fear I never shall see him
My bonny grey warden again
 
My love he died at Ostagar
When Loghain turned away
The traitor fled and left him to die
On the field that bloody day
But the Hero of Ferelden
Brought justice to the slain
With righteous might in a Landsmeet duel
He slew the proud Loghain
 
The baby my Grey Warden made with me
Has grown into a man
He fights in Ferelden’s Army
For good King Alistair’s land
He looks so like his father
Who left me on that day
The love of my life lives on in his son
My Warden of the Grey
