Sentinel Tower
Majestic and high
A lair for eagles,
in which they did dwell
Piercing the sky
A tower...
The sentinel
Every day at dawn
The flight of an eagle to be seen
In a pink sky
Above forests of green
For these wings guard our land
Golden eyes, so keen
On golden sand
Above forests of green
Spreading wing
Upon sentinel tower
A Shadowfire eagle, rising
To feel the wind on the rampart...
Sentinel tower
Flexing of golden wing
Mighty hunter at heart
Eagles cry, piercing
