I rode by, beneath the sky
Upon the road to Camelot,
Arthur, king, sent me his ring,
Summoned me, young Lancelot.
I mounted fast, until at last
I ended at the table round,
Sat me down, with knights renowned,
Upon the consecrated ground.
We drank with cheer, 'til Guinevere
Turned her dark eyes to look at me.
Our future written, I was smitten,
As Merlin looked on knowingly.
The rest you've read, how on my head,
True love placed a traitor's crown,
Arthur's queen and I, dared fly too high
Brought fair Camelot tumbling down
