Old Castle
The pine wind rustles on the top of the hill
What do you lonely old castle reminisce?
Chasing dreams of glory in your chest
Aah were you to look up, the dreary keep tower
On the stone wall in its crumbled state
Inviting grief the blighted leaves
The traces of arrows all around
Aah telling of ancient times, the grand gate
The tiles green, aged with moss
What do you lonely old castle reminisce?
Were you to stand still, a keen deep impression
Aah the geese in the sky, their sorrowful cries
