The lady of the lake She
stood in shrouded beauty
On the emerald shores of
the lake all around her reeds
glistened with dew drops at
her feet None knew who she
was Or whos come to pass
She was a figure of twilight
with respect she visited last
the lake was her solace her
comfort it did keep misery
loves its mistress she was
one to see the night was
getting colder her breath
was an icy fog she treaded
softly along the waters edge
and sighed over her loss
yes a man had drowned
here so many moons ago
his name was Daniel as her
love into a spinster she would grow
Daniel never knew her love
she had come to say
goodbye Daniel drowned
through suicide She remembered
his last goodbye A prisioner of the
water he did die black
ravens circled over like
beasts in the sky Just a
watery grave beneath
symbolically these shores
did weep She took her
hankerchief to her face
and dabbed a tear stained
cheek what a figure she
did make None knew her
name or age Just the lady
of the lake
