A messenger, riding in the dark,
Where will he go? What will he say?
Is disaster not far away? Is trouble brewing in the lands?
What will he say? What will he bring?
Is it a proclamation of joy? Of peace?
Will it bring sorry or joy? Happiness or Wailing?
Will he enter with an air of Victory? Or will it bring gloom and sorrow?
A messenger, riding in the dark, what is so urgent that he rides so fast & so far, that his horse is panting and wailing, and trying to keep pace?
What is in his pocket, that he would ride into the night?
What will he bring, that keeps us wondering?
What is it, that makes him continue riding in the dark...(?)
