Roundel: When we are lost

When we are lost

Within the dust and sand of desert years,

Who then shall count the cost

of two lives chained at Destiny's command,

When we are lost.

The shadow of fear

Our winding path has crossed

The cloudy waves surge onward to the land.

Time's thundering storms sweep down with ice and frost,

To chill the songs of love.

That we must follow shadows and be tossed

Hither and thither by Fate's relentless hand.

When we are lost, when we are lost.
