Din Guardi

The only memorial of all that is told
are of sieges and valorous chieftains of old
from that bleak rocky throne in magnificent pride
Din guardi stands with its secrets it hides

Bard divint tell ya tales aboot ya divinatory dreams
Merry Cole was a king but may not be as it seems
and Arthur round his table? that’s not clear to see
did they dance a jig to the fiddlers 3



Did they thank you kind Sir Oswald for that plate of meat so fine
did Aiden in his blessing foresee you in a shrine
did they take your hand in friendship but surely not your arm
they came to you in hunger not to cause you any harm.



So if all that is said was so much more than just a dream
did Lance give his guard to Jenefer the queen
or was it with Elaine such a joyous time was had
who bore him such a child as the mighty Galahd



Will you ever give the answers let us know from whence they came
will we find them in your body will we find them in your name
From that bleak rocky throne in magnificent pride
Din Guardi boldly stands with its secrets it hides
