      Its a warning that the silver Griffins that a bards sing while beseiged in cities to both warn invaders and citizens that the griffins are there and about to act. Its a final warning to leave or die.

    The singers are powerful, and well fit to the song, of course, it has as many elements of Chant as it does music as most people think of it. It doesn't invoke beauty as much as it invokes strength.

    This reminds me of the swedish fighter jets. They are called the Gripens (or gryphons) and their gray paint is close enough to silver.

    What's the first word in the line that goes "??? and desperate, the day is all but lost"? I can't catch it; I looked at three lyric pages and they all agreed that it was "Amazed", but whatever the tenor sings there, it's got three distinct vowel sounds which don't fit "amazed" at all.

      I'm hearing "situation desperate, the day is all but lost". (and yeah, most of those lyricssites use some sort of bot to transscribe the first draft, which while close, occasionally seems to miss some words).

      This song is from a book series written by Mercedes Lackey. The books that focus on the Gryphons are "Black Gryphon, White Gryphon, Silver Gryphon" I'm not sure that's the exact order you're supposed to read them in but I got them in the mail last week and will be reading them for the first time. but I've read some if Misty's (Mercedes) books before and I've loved all of them, even the early books where she didn't quite know her style of writing and could technically be counted as some of the worst of the bunch (because she was still inexperienced at the time).
