by: Unknown date: Late 14th Century DR source: Neverwinter Nights 2: Storm of Zehir Here ye now a tale of four, Two sisters and a brother more. A hapless lad who fell in love, And their antics speak thereof. [Chorus] Fairest maiden, hair like straw, Fell for that young man she saw. Fairer maiden, heart of clay, Went and stole his heart away. Fairest maiden, eyes like stars, He courted her, with all his heart. Fairer maiden, eyes like fire, He soon found her love was dire. [Chorus] Fairest maiden, hair like straw, Fell for that young man she saw. Fairer maiden, heart of clay, Went and stole his heart away. Maidens' brother, lad so brave, Ventured forth the man to save. Met the other maiden fair, Then he hit her with a chair. [Chorus] Fairest maiden, hair like straw, Fell for that young man she saw. Fairer maiden, heart of clay, Went and stole his heart away. Thus an ending, nice and neat, Stories short aren't always sweet.
