I wrote this a number of years ago, when I ran across the title as a Wizarding song
I own nothing but my muse. Unique concepts belong to J.K. Rowling.
I make no profit from this
God Rest you, Merrye Hippogriffs
Tto: God rest ye, merry gentlemen
God rest you , Merrye Hippogriffs,
Your sleep you've earned today!
Last night you flew around the World,
While pulling Santa's Sleigh!
The reindeer had all come down sick,
You came and saved the day!
With the power of Feathers and Fur
Feathers and Fur!
With the Power of Feathers and Fur!
The stable elf ran to the shop
To give the dreadful news
That all the reindeer in the herd
Had come down with the flu!
Santa thought hard for a moment,
Then knew just what to do
"I'll seek help from Feathers and Fur
Feathers and Fur
I'll seek help from Feathers and Fur!"
He tossed a pinch of Floo Powder
Upon the fiery grate
Then stepped right in among the flames
For he could not be late
He spoke a name known to few
And vanished in a blur
In search of Feathers and Fur
Feathers and Fur
In search of Feathers and Fur
The place he sought was far away
From his snowy northern scene
Where hippogriffs, both beast and bird,
Lived in a land of green.
He bowed before a mighty beast
And waited to be seen
To ask aid of Feathers and Fur
Feathers and Fur
To ask aid of Feathers and Fur
The Fearsome creature looked at him
Then bowed back in reply
And Santa spoke "I need your aid
To soar the Yuletide sky"
The noble beast , without a pause,
Quickly launched into the sky
With the grace of Feathers and Fur
Feathers and Fur
With the grace of Feathers and Fur!
Then all across the sleeping world
Formed the Hippogriff Relay
As two by two they formed a brace
To carry Santa's sleigh.
No reindeer magic did they have
Just Heart and Wing and Grace
And the Power of Feather and Fur
Feathers and Fur
And the power of Feathers and Fur!
All through the night they hauled the sleigh
With Santa and the gifts
The teams would change as each did tire
Without a pause or hitch.
The task was done with dawning rays,
They waited not for praise
Of the Labor of Feathers and Fur
Feathers and Fur
Of the Labor of Feathers and Fur!
So, rest you now, good Hippogriffs
It was a noble deed
To give your all in Santa's aid
In his great time of need
The world may never know of this
But the Reindeer Herd will heed
To the Glory of Feathers and Fur
Feathers and Fur
To the Glory of Feathers and Fur!
