  • He rode through the streets of the city

  • Down from his hill on high

  • O'er the winds and the steps and the cobbles

  • He rode to a woman side

  • For she was his secret treasure

  • She was his shame and his bliss

  • And a chain and a keep are nothing

  • Compared to a woman's kiss

  • For hands of gold are always cold But a woman's hands are warm

  • And there he stood with sword in hand

  • The last of Darry's ten

  • And red the grass beneath his feet

  • And red his banners bright

  • And red the glow of the setting sun

  • That bathe him in its light

  • Come one, come on the great lord called

  • My sword is hungry still

  • And with a cry of savage rage They swarmed across the rill

  • He rode through the streets of the city

  • Down from this hill on high

  • O'er the winds and the steps and the cobbles

  • He rode to a woman side

  • For she was his secret treasure

  • She was his shame and his bliss

  • For a chain and a keep are nothing

  • Compared to a woman's kiss

  • For hands of gold are always cold But a woman's hands are warm
