Moongleam and Meadowsweet |
See her face shine in the moonlight-- |
Soft as silk and white as cream, |
Silently I watch her slumber--gently kiss her cheek, |
Then I lay my weary head beside hers--close my eyes and dream. |
In the morning she’ll awake-- |
Cast off the night and shine like summer, |
As she dances all about me she sparkles like a stream, |
Her hair is full of meadowsweet--she's wrapped in leafy green. |
On bended knee before you with tears in my eyes, |
I pledge that till my dying day my sword is on your side-- |
Forever on your side. |
And I love you more than life-- |
I swear that you mean everything to me, |
Everything I’d sacrifice-- |
If my lady you would favour me. |
Far brighter than the stars your smile, |
You hold the richest sunset in those eyes-- |
You are England. |
Fear not lady I’ll defend you-- |
In your cause lay down my life, |
When 'concrete dragons’threaten they shall see my mettle gleam, |
And die if they should try to steal your cloak of leafy green. |
Of all the things worth dying for-- |
None sweeter have I seen, |
Than the rose that is my England-- |
In her cloak of leafy green. |
