The Nobleman, His Eagle and the Moon
In the Highlands of Scotland
A Kingdom exists
Two Kings rule
In the mountains and mist
A nobleman knight
With his bird of prey
A Golden Eagle so rare
Regal display
On moonlit nights
A turret he stands
Golden Eagle on hand
Two powers of grand
One word he speaks
The Eagle lifts
In powerful swoop
Gracefully swift
He flies to the heavens
Turns into the moon
To silhouette himself
In winged tune
The lunar light
On the knight shines
As he views his Eagle
In flight divine
A whistling call
Wind of change
The Eagle returns
To his masters domain
Hand outstretched
In silent land
The call of the wild
In respectful command
Come to my Kingdom
For all this you'll see
In the Highlands of Scotland
The real land of the free
