From the children of the wood, Arthur was taught wisdom
By seer Merlyn's lips Arthur was told of greatest events
The foretold glories, all of the histories and legacies
Of past holy memories of kings and warriors would sing
Arthur learned from mentor Merlyn ways of the kingdom
Across the land as the people suffered, divided, wounded
Only one of the dragon's blood will raise a people up
Giving them hope, following the king's ringing voice
Arthur's father Uther bore the dragon's blood inside him
The son was from the dragon's line, and that of the faer
Finally ready to bear the sword of Kings, at last to lead
For a time, Arthur restored Britain to the highest place
He was just a human, however blessed, and graced
He is now gone, ready and waiting on Avalon
Healing, sleeping, even learning by dreaming
Before all falls down, he'll be restored to his crown
And will lead all of his people, again
