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
