Ye Courtyard Minstrel Boy Lyrics - Ayreon

a new horizon 

hear the travellers call 

behold there lies a kingdom 

go forth ye minstrel tall 

sing of your wisdom 

spread tidings of joy 

a feast of song and laughter 

ye courtyard minstrel boy 

o'dance thee 'round the table 

for conquerors and kings 

thou muist win the heart of Gwenhwyfar 

fair maiden of the king 

thy lord thy master 

Arthur thee so bold 

heed the words of Ayreon 

and thy future will unfold 

sing ye tales of wonder 

whilst ye hide behind the joy 

cast thy spell asunder 

ye courtyard minstrel boy 

sing ye, oh sing ye, courtyard minstrel boy 

a day of splendour 

how beautiful birds sing 

ladies, lords and masters 

and rainbows he would bring 

a child's sadness 

sweet dreams, oh princely boy 

let thyn eyes reveal the madness 

ye courtyard minstrel boy
