heather dale - the old duke lyrics
i laugh at those who call me old
who think my age their best defence
for often fall the young and bold
who fail to laud experience.
my sword and i are much the same:
our actions swift and sure
each scar i wear, each greying hair
the life i gave to her.
throughout my life ive led my men
where king and prince command
and always does my lady tend
to children, hearth and land.
my wife and i are much the same:
our actions swift and sure
a husband fair, a home to share
the life i gave to her
to those who thought my lack of sons
would end a warriors line
i laugh and toast my daughter
who upon her throne does shine.
my child and i are much the same:
our actions swift and sure
a privilege rare, a crown to bear
the life i gave to her
so every p-ssing year reserves
familiar rhythms and the new
and through it all i lead and serve
with joy as i was born to do.
my land and i are much the same:
our spirits swift and sure
each oath i swear, each shouldered care
the life i give to her
