When I smile on my throne,
you will wonder
why the others cringe away in fear
pawns

When I laugh behind my hands,
you will wonder
why he shook so with rage
bishop

When I sleep at night,
you will wonder
why they stand guard by my bedside
knights

When I walk in the great hall,
you will wonder
why the others flee from my path
rooks

When I cry in the garden,
you will wonder
why he does not dry my tears
king

When I am silent at your graveside
you will wonder no more
