Saga Sithlight (RotS 'songfic') *some spoilers*

The words of the song are based on a tune, which name I can't remember. The words are mine (mostly).

















Sithlight

---

[i]Sithlight, Sithbright, this is the Sith you see tonight.
Make a wish, upon a star, you will see your dreams go far.

Sithlight, Sithbright, Sithlight shining out tonight.
If tonight, a Sith you see, happiness will come to thee.

Sithlight, Sithbright, sing a song of Sith tonight.
A song of peace, a song of Sith, a legend of a long-gone myth.

Sithlight, Sithbright, see the Sith grow bright tonight.
Brighter than the days gone by, higher higher in the sky.

Sithlight, Sithbright, your glory now shines out tonight.
Growing larger night by night, no more day, forever night.

Sithlight, Sithbright, shadow falling through the light.
A black hole ever ongoing, a Sith forever killing.

Sithlight, Sithbright, Sithscream, Sithscry.
A cold gaze of the evil eye.

Sithlight, Sithbright, Sithsong, Sithnight...
See the Sith grow bright tonight...
Hidden fountain of the light...

Starlight, small light, gentle hope, born tonight.
Twin candles piercing the Sithlight. Stars against the dark Sithnight.

Starlight, candle bright, children cry, in the right.
Father gone, mother dead. Children yet lay down their head.

Starlight, sweet light, unknown hope, sing of light.
The shadow yet knows not of you. Bearer of hope born anew.

Starlight, dream bright, grow strong, hidden light.
Great actions yet will come from you. Bearer of love born anew.

Starlight, starbright, glowing candles born tonight.
Hidden fountain of the light...[/i][hr]

You wouldn't have guessed.

Cloaked

Why Sith?

Why?

Never thought, never knew, how could you? Could I?

Thought of them- both of them-

On our side! I see the Sith- an yet-

not

Oh, Anakin-!

[i]Sithlight, Sithbright, Sithlight shining out tonight.
If tonight, a Sith you see, happiness will come to thee.[/i]

At least we know who our enemies are

now.

If there is one thing-

The sight of the Sithlight still brings happiness.

To few.

Oh, please-

Some hope? Quiet happiness.

[i]Sithlight, Sithbright, sing a song of Sith tonight.
A song of peace, a song of Sith, a legend of a long-gone myth.[/i]

Where did they come from?

Never knew, did we.

Never thought the'd come

back

Trusted them,

Gone for good, [i]we[/i] thought

Night falls: we never suspected.

All our fault, Oh- hells.

When?

They came- singing of peace-

The killing Sithlight-

The Sith-

We [i]let[/i] them!

Hells...

[i]Sithlight, Sithbright, see the Sith grow bright tonight.
Brighter than the days gone by, higher higher in the sky.[/i]

Powerful, so powerful

Great potential, Force power

Yet he turned

They control everything

Power shines

We could never have thought of twisted Sith-

When wrong, something was-

Their power waxes- ours -

Wanes

More power for Sith

More than Jedi

Sith shine

[i]Sithlight, Sithbright, your glory now shines out tonight.
Growing larger night by night, no more day, forever night.[/i]

We're drowning

The dark side sucks at us

How can we

 

Just wanted to say that this was a very lovely and lyrical piece, and I really enjoyed your way of essentially retelling the tale.

Thanks for sharing.

 

What a wonderful piece! Very poetic and lyrical. It's a great way to retell the story.
