Do not glide into the night, oh valiant knight!

Your word was your sword

Your deed was your steed

Your ideals, your coat of mail

Your lance, human travail

You smote the forces that rule

Decimating them with your ridicule

Do not glide into the night, oh valiant knight!

The world is overridden

Miseries, they come unbidden

Who will heed the voiceless’ cry?

Who will wipe their tears dry?

As souls plead for succor

Can you vanish, oh vanquisher?

Do not glide into the night, oh valiant knight!

Do not fall prey

To lucre’s sway

How can fame blind

Your mission so sublime?

Do not let those goons kill

The goodness that reigns within you still!

Do not glide into the night, oh valiant knight!

Let us sit here by the warm fire

And weave our tales of delight

Spin the yarn in favoured shapes

 A fount of youth for you

Where we will both submerge

And in a warm embrace emerge

A pool, where all wounds heal

Where you reclaim your lost zeal

I shall be by your side

Oh Musafir

I shall be voice and your breath

If I woo you with love

If I give you my heart

Would you return, my valiant knight?

Will you find grace

In my earnest embrace?

Come, return, my Valiant Knight

Let our love be the guiding light

Let us fight as one

Till our cause hereis done!
