The Sphinx

..... [Verse 1] I am the ancient Sphinx, so old and wise, Riddles and secrets in my eyes. Guarded for all who dare to try, Before me, mortals stand and sigh. They fear my breath of burning flame, Yet I’m weary, seeking no more game. All I want is truth to see, A glimpse of honour, wild and free. [Chorus] Not their weakness, but their might, In the heart’s light, shining bright. Heroes rare, so hard to find, Truth‑seekers of the noble mind. [Verse 2] Then one day, he came to me, Young and bold, from far across the sea. He found the way to my ancient land, Joyful, proud — he held his stand. Many walked this path before, None had seen what lay in store. I asked my question, deep and old, And with pure heart, his truth unfolded. [Verse 3] He knew what scholars failed to see, The wisdom lost, the mystery. That everything has its own start, An end to all that fills the heart. The cycle turns, the ages pass, He saw the truth at last. A single spark, a timeless flame — He broke the silence, ended the game. [Outro] I am the Sphinx, no longer cold, A tale of truth, now freshly told. In one pure soul, I finally see — The honour rare, the liberty.
