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 Check Mate

The Queen
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 Check Mate
