The Child and the Dragon



I cannot see the distant path 
On which your feet must tread: 
I only sense shadows deep 
That fill my heart with dread.

I know that right will persevere, 
That truth will arm you well. 
May the light that shines about you 
Banish dark where dragons dwell.

To protect you through your journey 
On roads where I have passed 
You must wisely use your magic 
To deflect the dragon's blast.

I give you now this talisman 
To keep within your breast: 
The talisman is love, my child, 
Its magic father-blessed.
