Day and Knight


In a time forgotten long ago, in a land quite far away
There lived a lass so beautiful, they called her Princess Day
For her smile was so radiant, her countenance so bright
It's said that any place she stepped, she brought with her the light
And always found just by her side, was her knight so debonair
Whose dashing deeds of derring-do, were known most everywhere
The two were nigh inseparable, they were never seen apart
It was whispered that they simply were, two pieces of one heart
They ruled the land with truth and grace, and the people all were glad
Together they were the greatest rulers, a kingdom ever had

But true love has its enemies, or so the stories tell us
Indeed, there was a sorceress, who had become quite jealous
She saw what the Princess had, and wished it for her own
So she cooked up an evil plan, to sit upon the throne
With slimy snails and dragon tails, she made a vile potion
Then set off to the royal castle, to set her plan in motion
The sorceress met Princess Day, and offered her a drink
And with one sip she felt quite tired, her eyes began to sink
Not a soul could wake her up, though many of them tried
And soon the entire kingdom wept, for it seemed the Princess died

Her knight however kept his faith, and got down on one knee
“Lord, take from her this sleeping curse, and give it unto me!
I know my Princess Day she lives, I feel it in my heart
I'd give anything to see her safe, even if we were apart”
Her body stirred within her bed, the sun began to rise
For Princess Day was back again, and opening her eyes!
As she woke the knight was weary, and began to nod his head
And took her place fast asleep, upon the royal bed
The Princess returned to rule the land, the sorceress didn't win
And any time she fell asleep, her knight would rise again

That's why we call them night and day, both watching from above
Ruling the land with gentle hand, and sacrificial love
For what together they once shared, they now each have alone
One must sleep for the other to rise, and sit upon the throne
But the sunset is the sky's delight, and never to be missed
For the very shortest span of time, both day and night exist
In the sunrise and the moonlight, the stars and the sun's rays
The two smile at each other, for the rest of all their days
So do not fear the dark my babe, it is just the noble knight
Standing guard until his love, can rise to bring the light.
