Oh King standing with sword shining
On steaming remains there bringing
He stands conqueror.

I know the strong man
He shows success,
A fire of youth.

Youth shattered around him
Too young for family
Not to die.

Honor not wasted on him
Restored name
Women dry their noble tears.

A tomb of pain
A true man would weep,
Their heart not far away.
