Song of the unsung hero

Another excerpt from my language, complete with breakdown and lacking
any unwelcomed marks.

Capital vowels are the hard sounds, A = s(ay), E = s(ee), I = h(i)gh,
U = oo and O is always long, whether lowercase or uppercase (oh)
- I tried to catch any lowercase o but I may have missed some.
