Topic: Mando Battle Hymns

This is the first topic I've started so don't yell at me too much if I did this wrong in any way.

I've had this tune in my head for a couple months now and finally decided it would make a good Mandalorian Battle Hymn. I have yet to translate into Mando'a but here's the english version with the notes below the lines. BTW It's in the key of 'F' and I'm not exactly sure how to write it but the first 'F' in the chorus is actually in the next highest scale from the one you start out from

Anyway I'd appreciate any critiques and was wondering if anyone else has wrote any songs of their own.


KANDOSII KAR'RTASE (Indomitable Hearts)

<Verse 1>

Our Blood May Run
F     A#    C     C#
Our Bo-dies Fail
D#    A#_C   A#
Our Flesh May Turn To Du-u-ust
G#     F     G#   A#  C  A#_C_C#
But Ne-ver Shall Our Hearts Give In
F   A#_C     C#   D#   A#     C    A#
For They Be-long To Us
G#    F    G#_A#  C  A#

<Chorus>

We March Fo-or Ho-o-onor
A#   F^   C#_C   C#_C_A#
We March Fo-or Vic-to-ry
A#    D#  C_A#  C_A#_G#
We March A-as Bro-o-others
G#   C#  A#_G#   A#_G#_F#
To-ge-ther All As One
A#_A_F     C  C#  A#

<Verse 2 same notes as 1>

Through Col-dest Nights
Through Bur-ning Days
Through All That Hell May Bri-i-ing
Our Bat-tle-cries Will Ne-ver Cease
Our Voi-ces All Shall Ring

<Chorus with the word 'Sing' in place of 'March'>

<Verse 3 same notes as 1& 2>

We Bat-tle In
A Thou-sand Worlds
In Wars That Are Not O-o-ours
Yet Man-do-'ade We Re-main
Though Scat-tered Through The Stars

<Chorus with the word 'Fight' in place of 'March'>

-Hey do you hear that? Is that screaming?
-Nope, that ner vod is simply the sound of natural selection at its finest.

Re: Mando Battle Hymns

Heh are you kidding? It took me forever just to pick out the keys on the piano. And the only reason I knew any of that was because I took two years of piano when I was 10.

I really wish I could come up with more. It would be awesome to hear a bunch of guys sing it with an entire orchestra behind them like 'Vode An'.

What are the things I put in bold?
Why don't you try March forth for honor?

Heh, sure. If you can record yourselves that'd be awesome. I'd love to hear someone else sing it.

Those are the musical notes. It's a pretty simple song so every syllable has one note to it.
Do you mean 'March forth for Honor' as the title of the song? Nah, I like 'Kandosii Kar'rtase'. The song's more about perserverance than honor.

Thanks alot, I appreciate that. You probably could make a song. People are alot more creative than they give themselves credit for usually.
