The Shadows of Light

The King and Queen
look upon their day,
The gypsies and jokers
sing songs of praise

The sorcerers of evil
cast curses and spells,
The slaves pull up water
from the wishing wells

The monks and priests
pray glory to the kingdom,
The prisoners down below
cry in agony for freedom

The darkness swallows
up the light,
As the day
crawls into night
