Long ago, I went to war
To fight the scourge of Christendom
I held aloft my blessed sword, and said
"By God, let them come!"
They said their eyes are red as flame
I heard it told from hell they came
Their breath is fire, their tongues are forked
Thus are the beasts of Dragon's Gate
I heard my father's words deep in my heart
"Son, know your enemy, as I know my son."
The Fates were kind, they let me in
The dragon's lair, the den of sin
I placed my sword upon its heart
And with a prayer, I thrust it in
The dragon fell upon the ground
'Twas then I heard a whimpering sound
A dragonling to his father clung
Who only fought to protect his young
I heard my father's words deep in my heart
"Son, know your enemy, as I know my son."
