The Lioness, Lioness
Beauty and power
The Lioness, Lioness
She will fight off death at the hour
See her striving to protect fam'ly and friends
The King's true vassal, loyal, loyal till the end
In the midst of the battle, hear them say
"The Lioness, Lioness"- Alanna triumphs today
She is the Protectress
Mighty and strong
She is the Protectress
Her song, her song is heard on
Waging a war on bullies and hazing
She is said to be simply, simply amazing
Weak defenseless and poor, she'll come at their call
But she will be there when love, love gives it the all
The Wildmage of Tortall
Gallant and free
The Wildmage of Tortall
Sworn to defend her friends till the end
She will heal the broken and help the lost
She will strive for justice, no matter what the cost
From nature she comes, in nature will she remain
Till it is time for her to ascend to the gods' domain
The Lioness the Protectress the Wildmage three
Who would dare to toy with women like these?
They are making their way; they are pacing their road
In the future, women, women will carry their load
They are the champions, the greatest, the most
When the time comes they will live with the gods as their hosts
When they go up to that great Court in the sky
It will be decided, they will be Tortall's patrons on high. On High!
