King of Hearts
Fools! They boast of flight and p'wr over minds.
My gift is greater by far, listen well:
For I have sovereign control o’er all kinds,
of hearts; Yea, I can cast the timeless spell.
And by this grace I bind unto myself,
ev’ry human being and all their strength.
Do you know any greater form of wealth,
than a race that will drive to ev’ry length—
for you; because they love you, they will try,
to please you, they would sacrifice themselves,
or spend their lives toiling ‘neath the sky,
your hand can reach stars, to the core it delves!
A billion minds themselves for you command,
Matchless p’wr, brought by hearts caught in your hand.
