|
By my father's deathbed I sit |
|
With a grim countenance to fit |
|
He's headed now for the land beyond |
|
A vengeance and his sword he left unto me |
|
Father, tell me what you dream |
|
Up there in the sky |
|
Are there mountains like the ones you loved? |
|
Are the valleys of the heavens evergreen? |
|
Do crystalline rivers flow in their midst? |
|
By the sword of my father |
|
This day avow |
|
By the sword of my father |
|
Revenge shall bejewel my crown |
|
My son take heed |
|
Remember my creed |
|
Hyperborean steel |
|
From the stone cromlech drawn |
|
Etched with glyphs of power |
|
Draconian, strong |
|
Let them behold thy scepter of war |
|
A royal flag from enemies torn |
|
By the sword of my father |
|
This day avow |
|
By the sword of my father |
|
Revenge shall bejewel my crown |
|
Leave behind this deathbed of mine |
|
Usurpers have seized thy coronet |
|
Silver stained with red |
|
Carve on their hides a warning for all |
