The '''Chant of the Cavalryman''', known in [[Burgoignesc language|Burgoignesc]] as ''Chant du Cavaleuer'', is a [[Yonderre|Yonderian]] marching song from around 1800. The song's evocative melody and lyrics have led to its widespread use as a song of Yonderian patriotism. Although it is known to have been written by a cavalryman of the [[Yonderian Defence Force|Yonderian army]], neither the lyrics nor instrumentals have a definite author, and several regiments of the [[Yonderian Defence Force]] maintain their authorship over the song to this day. | The '''Chant of the Cavalryman''', known in [[Burgoignesc language|Burgoignesc]] as ''Chant du Cavaleuer'', is a [[Yonderre|Yonderian]] marching song from around 1800.
