Legend
**Verse 1**
A legend tells a tale of old,
Of David, king both fierce and cold.
Then love's own arrow pierced his soul,
And stricken deep,
The Lord heard out his spirit's cry
And placed a hymn of love thereby,
So all the world could know what power lies
Within this keep.
*Chorus:*
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
**Verse 2**
This earthly love is heaven's gift,
A source where magic wonders lift,
In fate there are ascents and Falls to reckon.
He was enthralled by her fair grace,
Veiled only by one water's trace,
He cried: "Accept my throne
And admiration!"
*Chorus:*
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah.
**Verse 3**
Ignoring holy prayers' plea,
You know not battles from on high,
Unseen by all, another World exists here.
In every word — the light of love,
And in the word of «Light», it proves,
While in the song of Hallelujah life persists here.
*Chorus:*
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah.
**Verse 4**
The night recalls the tender touch
Of gentle hands we loved so much,
The moonlight trembling all around
In silence.
For that saint's ardor stood as tall
As some far distant star's downfall,
And in each earnest breath, a sharp Affliction.
*Chorus:*
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah.
**Verse 5**
In sum, he did just what he might,
However tragic was the plight,
He bowed without a shadow
Of contrition.
Who never sought the summit's height,
Nor knew the core of suffering's plight,
Will never taste the joy
Of exultation.
*Chorus:*
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah, Hallelujah,
Hallelujah.
