Maraquan Lullaby
By Bluecloud300

An Aisha, Princess fair, embarked
Upon her wondrous ship one day
Gliding amongst the waters blue
No care at all was in her way.

Then tragic struck, a sudden storm
Billowing clouds of dark portent
And Princess fair, as wave crashed down
Into the sea was downward sent.

Beneath the tumult of the sea
Sinking farther into the depths
The Princess, so full of despair
Prepared to breathe her one last breath.

Then, a Maraquan Aisha lad
Against King's will went from the gate
The Princess fair safe in his arms
Had saved her from that horrid fate.

Safely left at water's edge
She waved goodbye upon that shore
He disappeared beneath the waves
For the two would meet nevermore.

He gave to her his coral shell
Her locket for him to always keep
For him she waited by those sands
Staring always towards that ocean deep.

So hush my dearie, don't you fret
Hold tight your Meepit, dry your eye
And I shall sing my tale for you:
This sad Maraquan Lullaby.
