This was a song composed in unison by the likes of Allon the Dragon and Dranar the Sslik and performed many, many, many moons ago, often at a tavern on the beach of Parsinia. It’s a jaunty tavern tune and one that we wished to share here and teaches a very important phase to the Naka-Duskael that they may learn from Dragons and it is important for them to know… We present to you today the song, Ieo D’na Scov and multiple refrains for it, well some of the most popular ones… More were written and may be shared over time, but these were always the most popular. Feel free to sing along with the chorus if you like! Hopefully soon this and more will be performed once again at our new location at the beach near Sslanis! All are welcome any time there for foodand a scenic relaxation spot.

<Jaunty guitar music and possible drum beat if available, good to tap your foot to and sway a bit on occasion.>
This lesson here I’m about to tell
Is about a handsome Dragon
Who one day walked along a road,
His courage did not flagon,
He came across three tired knights,
In shiney armor fairrrr.…
One spoke up and with a smile,
“Can a good ride you share?”
The dragon laughed aloud at this,
And he just shook his head,
Then before he took off into the skies,
This is what he said…
<chorus>
Ieo d’na scov!
Is what the dragons say
Ieo d’na scov!
Don’t try to feed them hay!
Ieo d’na scov!
So I’ll just give you a clue,
Ieo d’na scov!
Means “I’m no horse” to you!
Now there was a king and queen so fair,
With a daughter ugly as dirt,
Yet no prince came to court her dear,
And her heart it did quite hurt,
Then one day a nobleman passed by,
and saw for him a chance,
He said their daughter he would wed,
And show her great romance,
But his price for the wedding day,
It wasn’t oh so fair,
The two must fly on dragon back,
unto their Honeymoon… <wink>
So the king and queen did let a call,
Upon the morning rays,
Though the replies that they got,
This is what they’d say…
<chorus>
One day came a trottin ‘long,
A knight upon a mare,
Her tail held high up toward the sky,
And oh she was quite fair,
One could tell by how she walked,
Her love was in the air.
As she passed by a dragon trotting,
She tried to catch his eye,
Though he turned his head, shook his tail,
And this was his reply.…
<chorus>
Now our dragon he was flirty,
And suave to a dragoness,
He brought her gems and pretty things,
And words to try and impress,
He asked if she would dine with gnome,
And fly the skies this night,
She just wiggled her hips and gave a wink,
And thought that sounded right,
Though when he finally asked her to his lair,
He seemed to imply much more,
She shook her head and gave a laugh,
and left right out the door…
Saying.……
<chorus X 2>
Ieo d’na scov!
Is what the dragons say
Ieo d’na scov!
Don’t try to feed them hay!
Ieo d’na scov!
So I’ll just give you a clue,
Ieo d’na scov!
Means “I’m no horse” to you!
