The Squares of Green and Red
The squares of green and red:
a silent battlefield
where now the king lies dead.
His royal blood is shed,
An evil plan revealed.
The crown has fallen from his head.
Across the board he led
a mission well-concealed.
But now the king lies dead.
The knights had been misled,
and left him on the field.
The crown has fallen from his head.
"No more," his bishop said,
and one last time he kneeled
where now the king lies dead.
The squares of green and red:
a silent battlefield
where now the king lies dead.
The crown has left fallen from his head.
