Can you see the half-moon rising?
From the sea so dark and wild
Far beyond the east horizon
Lies an island on the tide
Where the land was fair and plenty
And the queen was fairer still
And she walked beside her noble king
On the green of Rysen Hill
Cab you see the old moon sinkin'
On the sea so dark and wild
Far beyond, the waves are breakin'
On the shores of the Shining Isle
But the forest's burned and blackened
And the land is ash and flame
And thе king, they say, is fallen
And his Warden brothеr slain
But the half-moon light is given
By a sun no eye can see
And the day will conquer night again
By the Maker's good decree
And beneath the smoke and ruin
Lo, the land is fairer still
And a king one day will sing again
On the green of Rysen Hill
