St George
In lands of old, where legends roam,
St. George's name, a valorous tome.
With lance in hand, he bravely fought,
Against the dragon's fiery onslaught.
His courage bold, his heart aflame,
St. George, forever etched in fame.
A hero true, in history's page,
His noble deeds, through every age.
So raise a toast, to St. George's name,
In tales of glory, he'll always claim.
For in our hearts, his legend thrives,
Forever cherished, where valor thrives.
