The Wealdsmere Song

A Home in Wealdsmere

*A filk of “A Home in the Meadow” sung to the tune of “Greensleeves” written by Arnora Grimsdottir


Dream, dream – dream away with me

Where the drums beat wild and banners blow free

Dream, dream – dream away with me

And I’ll build you a home in Wealdsmere

Dream, dream – there’s a Barony grand

For the chivalrous heart and the helpful hand

Dream, dream – there’s a wondrous land

Where I’ll build you a home in Wealdsmere

The lanterns, lanterns – how bright they’ll shine

On a Barony camped together out of time

The lanterns, lanterns – how bright they’ll shine

On the home we will build in Wealdsmere

Dream, dream – there’s a Barony grand

For the chivalrous heart and the helpful hand

Dream,dream – there’s a wondrous land

Where I’ll build you a home in Wealdsmere


The Inspiration song:

Original lyrics to “A Home in the Meadow” Songwriters: Mike Scott / Sammy Cahn / Robert Emmett Dolan


Away, away, come away with me

Where the grass grows wild and the winds blow free

Away, away, come away with me

And I’ll build you a home in the meadow

Come, come, there’s a wondrous land

For the hopeful heart and the willing hand

Come, come, there’s a wondrous land

Where I’ll build you a home in the meadow

The stars, the stars, oh, how bright they’ll shine

On a world the Lord himself designed

The stars, the stars, oh, how bright they’ll shine

On the home we will build in the meadow

Come, come, there’s a wondrous land

For the hopeful heart and the willing hand

Come, come, there’s a wondrous land

Where I’ll build you a home in the meadow
