Sing Huzzah to the Hussar

Sing Huzzah to the Hussar
Riding fast and riding far
Mounted on our steed or rat or boar
Wind or fire, crag or ice,
With our ire, Jackal-slice
Goblinoid, you can’t avoid the call of war!
  In the Campaign of the Jackal
Hear our riding crops go crack ‘til
Our noble dynasty begins its reign
From Balamber to Bluebeard
We shall clamour to be feared
Huzzah Hussar! We’re riding out again!   Evil bite and claw of gnoll
We will frighten and control
As the hounds and dogs and canids yap in pain
Here to sever every bone
Cheer to never ride alone:
Huzzah Hussar! We’re riding out again!   And there’ll only be deserters
From their homes, flee our desert force
Sand and screams they’re falling by the grain
Be they ghoul or ghast or ghilen
Bring our rule against each villain
Huzzah Hussar! We’re riding out again!   Sing Huzzah to the Hussar
Riding fast and riding far
Mounted on our steed or rat or boar
Wind or fire, crag or ice,
With our ire, Jackal-slice
Goblinoid, you can’t avoid the call of war!
  Now, it ought not be surprising
Down we brought the Drow Uprising
When creepy sunken elves tried to complain
Like spiders they can spin and stir
Uprisers are so sinister
Huzzah Hussar! We’re riding out again!   And we storm through air and water
Like a debonair we slaughter
Elementals on their native plane
Every efreet every shaitan
Never retreat, bring the fight in
Huzzah Hussar! We’re riding out again!   And our Epaulettes will bristle
When we hear threats in Abyssal
We’re united; they’re Div-ided and profane
Regal beauty, buttons brass
Called by duty to harass
Huzzah Hussar! We’re riding out again!   Sing Huzzah to the Hussar
Riding fast and riding far
Mounted on our steed or rat or boar
Wind or fire, crag or ice,
With our ire, Jackal-slice!
Goblinoid, you can’t avoid the call of war!
  But as we became uncivil
We could see the starlight shrivel
Worn down by campaign after campaign
Huns abhor the gob-il-in,
Guns of war and Fallen Kin
Huzzah Hussar, no more riding out again.
By the roster we all fall
Til there’s no stars left at all
And there’s no-one left behind to take the rein.
Now with each new seat of power
Comes defeat but we won’t cower
Others may arise but we remain
As we languish, can’t relax
Cos there’s anguish under pax
Huzzah Hussar! We may ride out once again...   So sing Huzzah to the Hussar!
Ride in fast and ride in hard!
Calling every steed and rat and boar!
Bring down fire, crack and splice!
With our ire, Jackal-slice!
Goblinoid, you can’t avoid the call of war!
  Huzzah to the Hussar!
Fast and hard!
Sabres raised! A call you can't ignore!
Fire, crack and splice!
I hear Jackal-slice!
Goblinoid, you can't avoid the call of war!
