More than buildings burnt on the Night of Ashen Sand
The black sky a reflection of all that remains
In their rooms were simple things the flames took in hand
On the Night of Ashen sand, when Fort Valen changed

In a kitchen was a good loaf - saved for a dinner date
In a cupboard was a shell bowl too precious to use
A small piece of coloured glass - kept for its shine
A pillow that hid a letter from a soon-to-be wife

More than buildings burnt on the Night of Ashen sand
The black sky a reflection of all that remains
In their rooms were simple things the flames took in hand
Please remember what was burnt on the Night of Ashen sand

By a hearth, a flute unplayed since its youth
By a door, a new dress was prepped for the morning
In a box, some silks - from far across the dunes
Near a little wooden toy - lovingly chewed smooth

More than buildings burnt on the Night of Ashen sand
The black sky a reflection of all that remains
In their rooms were simple things the flames took in hand
Please remember those who burned on the Night of Ashen sand

I will remember them, I'll carry them with me
Each and every object which weighs on my mind
But a thing only dies when it's forgotten
And now, together, we can keep them alive
