The Dragon and The Rogue

Back when mountains were young
And the woodlands stretched wide
When the first songs were strung
As the passing of the tide

Days of wonder, days of gods
As they roamed this very land
Yet their footsteps against the odds
Remain on every grain of sand

The oaks were there long ago
With the melting of the snow
When desire turned to fire and smoke
The dragon and the rogue

The god of gods had a daughter
Her face was pure and oh so fair
Hair flowing like rushing water
Starlit embers in her stare

Broken word to her father
For she lay with a mortal man
Sharp his wit and heart of honor
Ashen hair to shoulders ran

The oaks were there long ago
With the melting of the snow
When desire turned to fire and smoke
The dragon and the rogue

Oh her father laid a curse
With loathsome ired verse
So you choose to disobey my command?

May you sprout scales and grow wings
Become the bane of kings
By claw and flame hated through the land!

And every time your lovers kin
Find their true love from within
You shall wake from your slumber and arise!

You will take away his love
To the mountains high above
Till the Greesh sons all come to their demise!

The oaks were there long ago
With the melting of the snow
When desire turned to fire and smoke
The dragon and the rogue
