Twilight turned to the ponies with a smile, now that their princess was here. "Equestrian ponies meet once a year, on the night that we make the Equestrian choice, and now that the Equestrian Leader is here..." she said, touching hooves with the smiling Princess, before turning back to the ponies, "Equestrian ponies can now REJOICE!" she said, all the ponies jumped up and pumped their hooves excitedly, before running off to prepare for one of Princess Celestia's favorite stories, Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle joined Princess Celestia, she warmly welcomed the two fillies into her lap, Twilight bowed before starting to sing.

Twilight: Of the awful battle of the Griffons and the Diamond Dogs

Together with some account Of the participation of the manticores

and the hydra

And the intervention of the great Mare Do Well!

The Griffons and Diamond Dogs everypony knows

Are a proud and implacable passionate foes

It is always the same wherever one goes

And the Manticore and the hyrda although most people say

That they did not like fighting yet once in a way

Will once and again join into the fray

And they

Mares: Bark!

Stallions: Caw!

Mares: Bark!

Stallions: Caw!

Mares: Bark!

Stallions: Caw!

Mares: Bark!

Stallions: Caw!

Mares: Bark!

Twilight: Until you could hear them all over the park

Now on the occasion of which I shall speak

Almost nothing had happened for nearly a week

And that's a long time for a Griff or a Dog

The big police Dog was away from his beat

I don't know the reason but most people think

He slipped into the Trottington's Arms for a drink

And no one at all was about on the street

When a Griffon and a Diamond dog happened to meet

At this, Flim and Flam burst out into costumes that looked like a griffon and a Diamond Dog.

Twilight: They did not advance or exactly retreat

But they glared at each other and scraped their hind feet

And they started to

Flim: Bark!

Flam: Caw!

Flim: Bark!

Flam: Caw!

Flim: Bark!

Flam: Caw!

At this, Flim got a little confused.

Flim: Bark?

Flam: Caw?

Twilight rolled her eyes and kept singing.

Twilight: Until you could hear them all over the park

Now the Griffon although people may say what they please

Is no pony but half lion, half bird

And so all the Griffons when they heard the uproar

Some came to the window, some came to the door

And together they started to grumble and wheeze

In their huffery-snuffery Griffonese

But a terrible din is what Diamond Dogs like

For your typical dog is a dour Yorkshire tyke

At that, Twilight signaled Snails to lead all the stallions who were also dressed up to march out, nearly knocking Twilight down and sang.

Stallions: There are dogs out of every nation

the Irish, the Welsh and the Dane:

The Russian, the Dutch, the Dalmatian,

and even from China and Spain.

The Poodle, the Pom, the Alsatian

And the Mastiff who walks on a chain

Twilight then used her magic to stop Snails, who was not too happy with being stopped and tried to her her but no avail.

Twilight: And to those that are frisky and frolical

Let my meaning be perfectly plain:

Stallions: That my name is simply symbolical,

and you'd better not do it again!

At that, Twilight rolled her eyes and let Snails go, making him fall to the floor, the stallions walked off as she sang again.

Twilight: And his braw Scottish cousins are snappers and biters

At that, Big Mac and Trixie came out in different costumes and danced next to Twilight.

And every dog-jack of them notable fighters

And so they stepped out with their pipers in order

Playing "When the Blue Bonnets Come Over The Border"

Twilight looked to the two with unamused looks and sent them off, only to have Rainbow play a flute, flying as she did, the the fillies came out in costumes as well.

Twilight: And the held no longer aloof

But some from the balcony some from the roof

Joined into the din with a

Mares: Bark!

Stallions: Caw!

Mares: Bark!

Stallions: Caw!

Mares: Bark!

Stallions: Caw!

Mares: Bark!

Stallions: Caw!

Mares: Bark!

Stallions: Caw!

Mares: Bark!

Until you could hear them all over the park

All: Huffery snuffery huffery snuff!

Twilight: Until you could hear them all over the park!

At that, the mares and stallions made that noise, making Twilight narrow her eyes and run back to where Princess Celestia was, "NO!" she yelled, making them all quiet and sit down.

Twilight: When these bold heroes together assembled

The traffic all stopped

And the Underground trembled

And some of the people were so much afraid

That they started to ring up the Fire Brigade!

When suddenly up from a small basement flat

Why who should stalk out but

All: The Great Mare Do Well!

At that, a pony with a full suit, hat and cape jumped out in back of the Princess, Twilight groaned a bit before pulling the pony out irritably.

Twilight: She gave a great yawn and her jaws were amazing

The pony closed her jaw sharply at Twilight.

And when she looked out through the bars of the area

You never saw anything fiercer!

The ponies trembled a bit as the pony's cape flew up and Twilight looked at the reader with an annoyed look

Twilight: ...Or hairier

And what with a glare of her eyes and her yawning

The Griffons and Diamond Dogs quickly took warning

She looked to the sky and she gave a great leap

And every last one of them scattered like sheep!

At that, Mare Do Well playfully charged at the ponies, making them run off.

And when the Police dog returned to his beat

There wasn't a single one left on the street!

Twilight and Mare Do Well danced a bit and the ponies came out looking normal, Rainbow tried another flute solo, but was disappointed when she didn't get any feedback.

All: All hail and all bow to the Great Mare Do Well!

All of them turned to Princess Celestia and bowed before running to her, she enjoyed the performance very much.

Princess Celestia: Equestrian Ponies and dogs all must

like undertakers come to dusk! (A/N: is that what Old D says? I had a hard time understanding that part ._.)

At that, thunder crashed, "NIGHTMARE MOON!" Applejack said, at that, Twilight got into her protective position, and we see a black mare with a flowing luminescent mane glare at the ponies before going quickly.
