The White Of Your Skin
[Dark Avenger]
- The young king is in love to a christian devoted queen, in craving prayers she bode the conversion of the King; she begs in copious weeping bonded hands and bent knees, her lips whisper the prayers but I can't hear what it means.

- "Above the lake's waters, above the steel of a sword, above the earthly winds, above the fire above; stands a power supreme that all created in world; swear beloved husband, by this cross not by thy sword!"
[King Arthur to Gwenhwyfar]
With all the love I save for thee
I swear my dear to you
With all my strength before the cross
I swear my love to you
That a holy stream of light
Warms this holy prayer in every dawn
Guided by the hands of God enlighten you
That all words all thoughts and actions which come out from me
Must be for thee my Queen
By your side I have found the relief to all my sorrows
I have found peace in the white of your skin
I have found by your side the relief to all my sorrows
I have found peace in the white of your skin
If darkness fall within my being
I beg my Lord don't let me go
Before the day I will return
To see your face once more
By your side I have found the relief to all my sorrows
I have found peace in the white of your skin
I have found by your side the relief to all my sorrows
I have found peace in the white of your skin
