There's a star of midnight sable
And a cross of gleaming gold.
A lion, fierce and noble
And a falcon, brave and bold.
They are met at Interkingdom
Where we gather ev'ry year
When the Star of Ansteorra
Meets the Cross of Calontir.

From the rolling hills of Namron
And the plains of Couer D'Ennui.
From the mountains of the Grimfells
And Stargate by the sea.
All the noble Lords and Ladies
Will come from far and near.
When the Star of Ansteorra
Meets the Cross of Calontir.

All the fighters in the tourney
And the minstrels on the side
Will celebrate our brotherhood
With courage, peace and pride.
Let us lift our cups together
And raise a hearty cheer
For the Star of Ansteorra
And the Cross of Calontir.

(Alternate tunes:
For combined war manouvers = the Marine's Hymn
For long caravan trips = Oh, Susannah!
If you just gotta be serious = Rising of the Moon)
