Honour
(© 22 August 2001 - Dirk Schmitt)

A world where honour is a joke
That is what I see about me
No longer does it mean what it once did
Thus we say an end to be

Stand tall upon ancient pathways
Remember the ways of honour
Know in yourself that worth is measured otherwise
Than the methods used this hour

Never give up your inner self
That part of you that is tru
Give honour where it is deserved
And hold thyself above in league with the few

Foolish children of the modern age
Squabble carelessly for their scraps
Whisper darkly in hideous company
Setting their snares and traps

Do not hold truck with their ways
Ere you end up as one of them
Idylls you maintain with no thought of gain
Hold it as they would a precious gem

So come those who hold tru
We shall wend our way forth
Journeying forever more through life
Forever holding to our troth
