The Minstrel
I was not meant for smug, complacent ease,
Completely satisfied with food and drink,
And the thousand tinseled toys that lull the soul,
And snare in bondage those who dare to think!
Because I held gold light, men flouted me,
Because I sang, men spurned me with a jest,
An ancient minstrel in a modern world,
Who scorning vales, braves hills at Song's behest!
Completely satisfied with food and drink,
And the thousand tinseled toys that lull the soul,
And snare in bondage those who dare to think!
Because I held gold light, men flouted me,
Because I sang, men spurned me with a jest,
An ancient minstrel in a modern world,
Who scorning vales, braves hills at Song's behest!
