The Accolade - Knighting משיחת האביר
Knighting a King, Crowning a Knight הכתרת האביר
In hallowed halls, where light does stream,
Through colored glass, a sacred dream,
A princess fair, with golden hair,
Stands robed in green, beyond compare.
Before her kneels, with bended head,
A knight so brave, by honor led.
His shining armor, strong and bright,
Reflects the gleam of holy light.
No helm conceals his earnest face,
A short-trimmed beard, with quiet grace.
Upon his shoulder, swift and true,
The princess lays a sword anew.
A moment charged, with ancient might,
As valor joins with royal right.
In Gothic arches, soaring high,
A pledge is made beneath God's eye.
The whisper soft, a solemn vow,
As knighthood's mantle rests somehow,
Upon his spirit, bold and free,
For kingdom, truth, and loyalty.
And as the windows shine with light,
The Accolade is now a knight.
For good and honor, he will fight,
The protector of the right.
