Are you love's servant?
An angel who bears its cup?
Or are you the world's minion?
Here to pillage and plunder
for the sake of your dominion

This cup you bear could be your horse;
my love and trust, the realm of Troy
If I open myself to your gift,
would you use it as a weapon
and my hopes and dreams destroy?

I want to give out the order to lower the bridge
that spans this moat between us;
to wave the flag and call a truce
but the truth is, I have much to lose

If only you were God's servant
what a blessing that would be!
I'd send word throughout the land
and have a celebration in your name
You'd be my greatest alliance
and I'd crown you king of my domain
