Bathed in the stream of the undying waters
Immersed alongside lost sons and daughters
Emerging a born victor- Steeled and ready
Who knew the Fate's gift would be so heavy?
Raised in the field and made for war
Unbent and unbowed by the great king's law
Sowing death and destruction in the heat of battle
He slaughtered the ranks like herds of cattle
He lived for the promise of undying glory
Knowing full well the tragic end to his story
But for all his loyal love and crazed bloodlust
He was struck down at his highest point and left to the dust
