'A Riddle' from my Dream

where is she? where is she? asked the emperor 
the lady with the candle must not be found...

do you think the captain of this ship is blind?
the anchored ship must not be caught...

the baby in the cradle starts to sob
but no one near must be found... 

the red cap! the red cap! says the man in white
it is the moment when the lightning must strike...

the red carpet and the fall of crown
she must not be found,lady in light pink gown...
