The Sleeping King
Do you know the tale of the sleeping king
lying beneath a mountain?
The stories of what his return will bring
when the time comes to call him?
For centuries he has slumbered
in the earth so deep,
waiting for the moment
to fulfil the oath he keeps.
That when we are in
our needy hour,
the king shall arise
from his long slumber,
with crown and sword
sheild and spear.
The ancient king
will reappear.
To protect his people
mighty King of Britain,
will return to banish
the most fearsome villian.
I wonder now
like many before me,
if our plight is enough
or merely a warning,
of what is to come
and leave us so forsaken,
that the old king
will finally awaken.
