[Refrão]
 
    Am                          C 
The Kingsword will stand in its scabbard of granite 
    F                         F            G 
The quicksilver forged in the pools of the sky 
  Am                      C 
A rumour explained by the one who began it 
  F                           Dm             G Am 
A boy's hand will grasp it, a man's raise it high

Son of the dragon, of night and the slaughter

Whose wisdom his unshaven youth will belie 
     Am                        C 
Will wake from her slumber the lake's only daughter 
   F                      Dm       G 
To answer the calling she cannot deny

Wrought by a queen for the hand of the chosen

From fishscale and currents and winter's reply 
Am                         C 
Brought from the deep by a prophet who knows

In the arms of the water again it will lie
