Sit quietly Dragon
while the enemies come
for their chanting and clanging
are a low distant hum.

Sit motionless Dragon,
as the armies draw near
show nothing of danger
show nothing of fear.

Sit patiently Dragon
on your tower in the clouds
though the sound of the foe
is vulgar and loud.

Move swiftly now dragon
strike fast and strike true
and show then what fire and talons are for.
