The Midnight Hymn, which is sung at the Midnight Song at all seasons of the year

Queen Hasanyah, of women fairest,

Weeping, keeps the Midnight Vigil.

She remembers all the heroes—

All the heroes of her people

Proved in long-forgotten struggles.

They fell in triumph, died the victors.

Queen Hasanyah, fairest priestess,

Weeping, keeps the Midnight Vigil.

Now at Midnight, when the Polestar

Bright is shining in the Heavens

We rise up from deepest slumber,

We rise up to sing of sorrows,

And to mourn the many heroes

Who in warfare with the passions

Fell in triumph, died the victors.

Queen Hasanyah, of women fairest,

Weeping, keeps the Midnight Vigil.

She remembers all the heroes—

All the heroes of her people

Proved in long-forgotten struggles.

They fell in triumph, died the victors.

Queen Hasanyah, fairest priestess,

Weeping, keeps the Midnight Vigil.

Now we rise to keep the vigil

With Hasanyah, Queen beloved.

We lament with the holy monarch

Lanenomen’s Seven Cities

And the ancient Isle of Feihoth

Lost to us beyond the ages.

Queen Hasanyah, of women fairest,

Weeping, keeps the Midnight Vigil.

She remembers all the heroes—

All the heroes of her people

Proved in long-forgotten struggles.

They fell in triumph, died the victors.

Queen Hasanyah, fairest priestess,

Weeping, keeps the Midnight Vigil.

Sleep pursues us—we forsake it

While we keep the Midnight Vigil.

Starlight, water, come and bless us.

Bless the ones who keep the memory

Of the ancient days still living.

Queen Hasanyah, of women fairest,

Weeping, keeps the Midnight Vigil.

She remembers all the heroes—

All the heroes of her people

Proved in long-forgotten struggles.

They fell in triumph, died the victors.

Queen Hasanyah, fairest priestess,

Weeping, keeps the Midnight Vigil.

Of the ancient starlit Heavens

Water keeps alive the memory.

We will keep the Midnight Vigil

While the world in sleep around us

Falls into forgetful slumber,

So forgets its ancient sorrows.
