Summer of Lore #15 (belated): Colors of Battle

About the song:

This song tells the story of how a father seeking to save his son (although some versions make it a daughter) from a thieves guild battles the guild's best fighter on a bridge overlooking a river (where the mists make a rainbow)

Originally, the song had seven verses and a definite ending (the father wins), but as time went on, so many verses were added that it is now considered a "never-ender", and it is only rarely the ending verse is ever sung.
