Belt and Chain

(By... not sure, can't remember, maybe someone else can fill this in, but I do
believe its Trimaran)

Days moving fast, and the legends long past,
but some still remember a place
a place of skill where honor lies still
a bastion of honor and grace,
a bastion of honor and grace

REFRAIN
	Will you take the belt and the chain
	that dream may yet live again
	Swear your heart to chivlary's art,
	swear your sword to our game,
	swear your sword and be chained.

Take the young boy and make him a page
teach him skills to come of age
Teach him honour and valour and truth
Give him these gifts in his youth
Give him these gifts in his youth

REFRAIN

Take the young man and make him a squire
Teach him arms to serve his sire.
Teach him chivalry, strength without stain
For someday he too will be chained
One day he'll take belt and chain

REFRAIN

Take this belt as a badge of your worth
And the chain where your oath is interred
Hold fast to honour as hard as it seems,
For you guard the halls our dream
You guard the halls of this dream

REFRAIN

Count Kai has sung this song at the knighting ceremonies for Sir Duncan, Sir
Caignon and at Coronation, Sir William. It is a beautiful song!
