Beowulf's name in saga lore,
Beowulf dove into the deep,
From shores of home to Hrothgar's hall,
Beowulf's brave, enduring story.
In ancient halls his deeds remain,
Lives evermore, forevermore.
To end the fiend and set men free.
Tore limb from limb, the feast did cease.
A hero's song, a timeless strain.
Yet one last foe would bring him down.
Beowulf his name, the tale it goes.
In the halls of kings and battle's fire,
Beowulf faced his final claim.
Yet darker threats lay still in wait,
In murky depths, the mother dwelled,
In Geatland bold, a hero rose,
A vengeful heart, her fury swelled.
Years did pass, a king renowned,
He forged his fate, through realms dire.
With grip of steel, he faced the beast,
Beowulf sailed o'er the sea,
He heard the call, he'd heed them all.
Raise your horns, sing of glory,
A mother's wrath, a dragon's fate.
In Herot's heart, he struck at night.
To claim his victory and peace to keep.
A dragon fierce with breath of flame,
Grendel came, a monstrous plight,
