to this day

the children of the sun

having fun

he left his stamp there

to this day

bringing ice upon the breeze

making flowing water freeze

the minstrel of the land

made a stand

in a castle made of sand

watched it fall

in the frost

and the message was lost

with one last word

to deliver

under ice upon the river

it lies frozen to this day

frozen to this day
