Kind Sirs, Lovely ladies
This tale you'll enjoy
of the way love once started
3/8
between maid and boy.
It began on an evening
where feasting was done.
Here our lover's encountered
and this tale has begun.

Verse 2
As the lad looked around him with wandering eyes
3/8
he beheld there a lady her look like the skies
As the sun seemed to bless her with flames in her gaze
't was this wonderful vision that filled him with praise.
Verse 3
His mouth longed to speak of the fire in his soul
to this beautiful maiden of virtues untold.
But before he could utter the words on his mind
she had gone away, vanished and left him behind.

Verse 4
As he caught himself staring, his eyes open wide,
3/8
gazing down at the place where she fled from his sight
He decided to seek her a quest for his love.
So he gathered his valour and soon he set off
Instrumental
Verse 5
For a day and a full night he rode and he sought
asking all he encountered where his love was brought.
By the trail that they showed him he wandered along,
't was her image that led him and kept his love strong.
Verse 6
Kind Sirs, lovely Ladies, our tale is at end
Did they spend their lived loving, or is their love spent?
Love is found by the seeker and wants to be sought.
May the Lord guard your pathways as you seek what he's stored.
