Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Ivan skavinski skavar
I must have heard this while still in my crib. My dad was fond of remembering every single verse as a Boy Scout leader for many years. My spelling recollection is of Ivan Skavinsky Skivar and Abdullah Bulbul Amir. I also remember the second line after "The Sons of the Prophet" was "And quite unaccustomed to fear." Who has time to parse the rest of it?
