The Citadel of Troy. |
Holy, holy Troy rich in gold
Long lost and then found
Holy and rich in gold
Priam the King , proud he stood
On ancient Anatolia's western shore you proudly stood
Blessed by the Gods
Cursed by the Gods
A war many times fought
Says the Illiad nine times ten
Till King Odysseus's willy trick
A Spartan Queen's adultery
A terrible war brought you low
To bring you Oh Holy Troy rich in gold
Proudly you overlooked
The emerald blue green of the might Aegean
The lair of mighty Poseidon, who hated you in lore
Mighty Zeus, Glorious Apollo who loved you in lore
Holy holy Troy rich in gold
