The path of war I've tirelessly tread
With blade of steel struck and won
Yet ogres wrath nor dragons dread
Can match your merciless, two-edged tongue

Against fire and hail I've stood alone
Goblin's heads I've made to roll
Impaled trolls on stair and stone
Still your words devour me whole

So as not to trip on Holy Ground
With thoughtful care I plead my case
For on earth no shield can be found
If you in battle I should face
