Song: If I Forget Thee

IP I forget thee ! How shall I forget thee ?
Sword of the mighty ! Prince and Lord of War !
Captive I bind me
To the spears that blind me,
Rage in my heart and love for evermore.
If I forget thee ! How shall I forget thee ?
Man the destroyer ! Life that made mine move !
They that come after
Let them earn my laughter,
Ay, but my anger, never, nor my love.
If I forget thee ! How should I forget thee ?
One man there is no woman dares despise.
Hate him it may be,
Wound him if the way be,
Nay, but forget him ? Not before she dies !
