To Take The Black

Cast out from the lands of their births

Banished from hearth and home

All brothers must swear the oath

Forsaking all they've ever known

Those who choose to take the black

Bid farewell to comforts great and small

Those who do, don't come back

Prepare yourself for life on the Wall

Night gathers and the watch begins

The wind carries an unnatural chill

There are things beyond the northern borders

Mere steel can't kill

Men who choose to take the black

Rogues and rangers, one and all

Those who do, won't come back

Prepare yourself for life on the Wall
