Valiant Lady
Standing there with sword in hand,
As valiant as any Knight.
The young fair Lady stood her ground,
Prepared for the coming fight.
A peasant born, no Knightly blood,
Yet honor filled her heart.
She helped her King regain his throne
Before her world was torn apart.
So proud was she, stood by his side,
As crowned once more was he.
Then captured, sold, imprisoned,
She was no longer free.
For she was tried, condemned to death,
A heretic she was called.
At 19 years burned at the stake,
Today we'd be appalled.
And so today, we call her Saint,
The soldier's patron she,
That brave young lady, Joan of Arc,
My words, they honor thee..
