Soldier, Poet, King, but it’s in a minor key and 50% more Medieval

May I present “Soldier, Poet, King“ by the Oh Hellos, but even more Bardcore than it already is. I decided to leave the lyrics alone, but I changed the key entirely, and I am joined by my brother Friar Funk on male vocals. I hope it graces the table at your next D&D campaign. The Art: May Calendar Page; Hawking, Unknown artist/maker, Mid-1200s, Bruges (possibly), Belgium (Place Created), J. Paul Getty Museum at the Getty Center (Los Angeles) I found the “soldier” and “poet” on Pinterest and modified the art, but couldn’t find a source. The Lyrics: There will come a soldier Who carries a mighty sword He will tear your city down Oh lei, oh lai, oh, Lord Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh, Lord He will tear your city down Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh, Lord There will come a poet Whose weapon is His word He will slay you with His tongue Oh lei, oh lai, oh, Lord Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh, Lord He will slay you with His tongue Oh lei, oh lai, oh, Lord There will come a ruler Whose brow is laid in thorn Smeared with oil like David’s boy Oh lei, oh lai, oh, Lord Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh, Lord Smeared with oil like David’s boy Oh lei, oh lai, oh, Lord Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh, Lord He will tear your city down, oh lei, oh lai Ohh Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai Oh lei, oh lai, oh lei, oh lai, oh
