* These are song lyrics that match actual vocals used by in-game music. If the player rents a room from [[Elfsong Tavern]], the background music has a vocalist singing these exact lyrics. Another book item referring to [[Elfsong Tavern]] mentions a "disembodied singing voice" potentially meant as a joke referencing this fact.
* The specific lyrics of ''"Baldur's '''fate''' now turns upon the '''whims''' of fortunes few"'' could be interpreted as evidence supporting the idea that specific game characters (including one very [[The Emperor|specific character]]) significantly change their behavior (or "fate") depending on what choices (or "whims") the player selects during their campaign.
* The specific lyrics of ''"a knave, a wizard, devil, gith"'' could be a reference to specific [[Origin]] characters, ''such as'', [[Astarion]], [[Gale]], [[Karlach]], and [[Lae'zel]] respectively. There are, however, multiple characters that potentially fit the description of each word. Larian's planned number of [[Origin]] characters changed over the course of the development, so the mention of only four characters could ''either'' be because the song was written ''earlier'' than release, or simply to make the lyrics flow better.
