Sorting hat song to Harry
Come young ones and listen to me
Old and tattered though I may be
There is more to this hat you can not see
I lived through an age of wizards great
And an age of darkness and hate
I have seen evil rise to power
While good wizards run and cower
But also do I know
The power that will beat any foe
This power given to a kid
And just look at what it did
We were released from evils hold
Until a plot did unfold
Evil has returned to settle the score
But this power can heal once more
Learn the balance and you shall see
There is no wiser hat then me
Only one opposite can beat the other
The gift given by a dying mother
Shall we leave this up to fate?
Or shall you learn love and hate
The worlds at stake
You can not gain without some loss
Life is not just some coin toss
Love can over shadow hate
And knowledge can change fate
So learn to love and not to morn
And never scorn
What you have been taught
Or else all was for naught
And Evil wins
Either way another age begins
