: O Halo night, it seems the forum's tiring
: Of all the same old subjective debates.
: Long lay the lore in holes and errant wiring
: Till Chief appeared, and the gamers went to play.
: In thrill of battle, the wielded sword it blazes
: Till yonder breaks a new and sleepy morn.

: You clamber up the ledge, then hear the voice announce that -
: The fight is won! The fight that you have won.
: Those kills were fun! Oh right, you've only one.

: Soon then, the draw of the game is slowly fading,
: Its glowing plasma and 'nades losing sheen...
: Remember the time when the forum friends, they gathered
: And all waxed wise o'er the sights they had seen.
: Alpha Halo - it lays in mess all shattered,
: But what has come of the remaining Halo rings?

: Questions we need, curiosity's essential.
: Behold your fans! To them great story send!
: Untold story lay, before we lowly fans...

: Truly Chief led us through deepest Halo mysteries,
: And when Cortana was lost, the story ceased.
: Then all hell it broke loose, for plot was merely twisted,
: And more new names tried to take center stage.
: But all we hope that the story's going somewhere,
: Let's all we gather again at H.B.O.!

: Fists full of arrows! And fiction, art, and theories!
: It powers o'er many other sites of fame,
: ♫ Let's all we ga - ther again at H.B.O.! ♫
