Your Protector of Fortune

Kismet... kismet
Oh lady fortune clutch this wretch to your breast
A burning emotion surges through without sweat
I try to close these eyes but they cease to rest

Remember the water lillies under that timeless pale moon

My love is not a reflection of any mirror across these isles
She is the one I owe a thousand lives without recourse
Her heart was not won by wit nor guiles save only thy treacherous trials
My soul and body are her protector and friend while ever a martyr without remorse

The caress that locked us in a voluptuous embrace

For this woman not a step would shudder in wake of a Titan's quake
No fire to burn the skin she adores or scar the face she kisses
Through the storms of cutting hail and rains of no end there is the lady of the lake
For her I'd appear as the lover of which a young girl misses

The arms that you that held you well for we shall not forget our swoon

Scented voice of this lady soothes my spirit well for my hand holds no blade
Yet no son under heaven shall feel a wrath as mine and no path will cause me to sway
Even under the dim night's fade
Scented voice of my love will forever show me the way...

Remember the sworn devotion of faith that tied the final lace

Clutch please oh this wretch to your loving breast
Allow me to honor a sworn vow by your hand of fate
Hold us both mother of destinies to your loving chest
Let me protect her... my love.... my soul mate
