Paralized in heart and mind // Desperation, grief and pain // Emptiness inside my heart // Silence surrounding me //
Can’t grasp your fatal destiny // After long captivity // Disgraceful sentenced to the pyre // For to burn alive
No chance to free you // to help you while you stand in flames // No chance to ease your painful agony //
All these awful things return to my mind // Reappear before my eyes // the memory of it will never fade // only tears remain
I remember well the time // As we’re rinding side by side // Fighting against the enemies on the battlefield //
Before my inner eyes I see // Glorious moments from the past // You fought in silver armour // confident in mind and soul
After all the glorious victories, after all that you have done // After all meritorious deeds one by one //
Why have you been betrayed? // Why have you been left to your fate? // Why did the king not try to save your life in dire need? //
I can’t believe
Your short life and your fate // An eternal mystery // What where your expectations // During your captivity? //
You became the victim /why did you go so far? // Your sacrifice and your mission // I wonder who you really are
It seems your way was predetermined // Sterred by a higher force // Had you been aware of your fate? //
Or did you trust false promises // Made in hopeless plight // Did you have still the hope deep inside to escape your fate?
Your sacrifice was not in vain // Will till the end of time remain // Hope you found redemption // In a better place ... but
I will never hear your voice again // Never see your lovely smile // Never again ride at your side // Only meet you in my memory //
Only in my deepest dreams // But you will forever stay in my heart // I take leave of you now // Farewell Jeanne
