    I thought it would be fun to post the lyrics of the Bardic songs you hear in ESO. Often times, I get in go-mode when I'm playing and fail to stop and appreciate the songs. The Bardic performances add real depth to the world as well as providing interesting lore and other tid-bits. So pour up a mug of of your favorite drink and sing along! May the drunken revelry begin!!

    ALLIANCE-SPECIFIC SONGS

    Three Hearts As One (Ebonheart Pact):

    We tilled Skyrim's ground despite frozen toil
    We tended the kwama beneath Morrowind soil
    We hunted the wamasu in Black Marsh's glades
    We Three hearts had no need for blades

    Then they came from the seas, folded steel in their hands
    They burned down our homes and ravaged our lands
    Akaviri brought nothing but bloodshed and lies
    Our families were slain before our eyes

    With Three separate people they shared a cruel joke
    A choice between death or the yoke
    But then our Three people knew what must be done
    To end the oppression, all Three became One

    Forged by war the Ebonheart rose
    And drove the Akaviri back to the sea
    When the enemies begged for the mercy they lacked
    Three voices as one shouted "Blood for the Pact"

    Forged by war our story be told
    No shackles can hold us
    Whether moonstone or gold

    I just had to add this:
