Who are you? Asked the riddler:
Gatekeeper to another world
Gatekeeper to another world
I am a Knight of great valour
I killed and slayed without remorse
I conquered patches of Earth
And fashioned a kingdom.
But in the end
A younger me
Did usurp my role.
Who are you? Asked the riddler:
Gatekeeper to another world
Gatekeeper to another world
I am a thief and a master of deceit
I tricked and turned and groveled at feet
I grew a fortune that
Wanted men keep.
My son did learn from me
And threw me overboard.
Who are you? Asked the riddler:
Gatekeeper to another world
Gatekeeper to another world
I am the one with a heart of gold
It took me everywhere without much force.
I did not win
I only grew old
Yet in the end I still have this
Heart of gold.
