AWhat is right and what is wrong, a short sEword or a long,
F#mA weak arm or a strong for the draw, for the dEraw,

[Verse 3]
F#mWhat makes heroic strife, famed Aafar, famed aEfar,

ASo let you schemes alone, adore the risinEg sun,
F#mAnd leave a man undone, to is fate, to is faEte,
F#mAnd leave a man undone, to is fate.
