Can you help me? Can you please define: lays?
I don't understand how it's used in the story.
Story sentence:
"that is the language that dragons speak, and the language the Segoy spoke who made the islands of the world, and the language of our lays and songs, spells, enchantments, and invocations."
Please help.
Though I have not a Lyre, I may write the Lay.
Here, a Lay in three quatrains about and for a very cool Cat.

Is that from a fantasy book? In that case, "lays," similar to "Segoy," would most likely be words the author made up. Personally, I would ignore the word.
DS.......Here are two definitions of that word...I'm unsure of the origin(s)
CPhill's answer makes a lot more sense.
Clearly, Sir CPhill is well-educated in medieval languages:)

Maybe you are not yet a princess, but he said you are among the most unique of human beings and will be an ambassador to the world. That’s pretty neat, isn’t it?
The Ghost does seems to know what’s in a person’s heart. It is a little spooky, but not frightening.
