The Keeper of Shangri-La

Deep in a long forgotten land
Away from desire and sight
In a garden of eternal bloom
Forever in silence
Once was briefly seen
In the rays of a paling gleam
The Enchantress of the wild
The Mistress of wonders
Bringer of war and despair
Designed as a mortal, ensnared
Could your blinded eyes see
The light of a diamond
I will drown in the fountain of youth
Smothered by the forbidden fruit
Wake me from life
Take me to heaven
I belong in the remains
Deep in the mountains
In the land of the rising, blazing sun
