Fables of Past Glory



 And the men forgot
 Forgot the past
  Forgot our ancient cast

  When nature redeemed
   The days of true Tranquil
   When hearts moved to True Passion

    Those times of Glad-Hearts
   Beauty of the nether upheld
    When safety and Joy metarmorphised
  Into strong pillars of Life unshakable
    
   The good old times are past
   But as we live our lives
   We remember the Legends of old...
