Drummer, beat, and piper, blow
Harper, strike, and soldier, go
Free the flame and sear the grasses
Till the dawning Red Star passes
From the Weyr and from the Bowl
Bronze and brown and blue and green
Rise the dragonmen of Pern
Aloft, on wing, seen, then unseen
Dragonman avoid excess
Greed will bring the Weyr distress
To the ancient laws adhere
Prospers thus the Dragon-weyr
