She has beauty

She has love

She is high

But I’ll rise above

Her skin so white

Her hair so black

Won’t protect her

From a hunters attack

In my home

My beauty was overlooked

And then I married a king

But now his daughter

Fairest of all outshines even the littlest thing

My father turned me away

What was I but a farmers child

My mother didn’t dote

Because I was just one

And the four beauties above me

They shone like the sun

Their blond tresses outshined my brown tangles

Their fancy jewelry my plain broken bangles

Their long lashes surpassed my pointed brows

They were paraded while I tended the cows

But I showed them

when I won over a king

I became his wife

And left my family with a sting

But now again I’m overlooked

I’m challenged by this princess

I’d love to have her cooked

Make her regret her ingress

Into this world

Where she’s stolen my light

While it belonged to me

Soon she’ll see I’m in the right

I’d give her to the blind witch

But that wouldn’t be personal

She’s challenged my fairness

She’s tried to outshine me

I will show her my awareness

And have her hunted finally

It hasn’t worked

She’s still the most fair

I sent the hunter

I am sure I was clear

I’ll have to do it on my own

I’ll have that hunter thrown

Down the cliffs of the kingdom borders

For his weakness and reluctance to follow my orders

A mere illusion

A little old lady like a lost sheep

A nice shiny apple

And a long deep sleep

She will only awake when she’s discovered what I had to

She will awake when the love kiss she’s given is true

Like my king did for my conceited illusions

That beauty was what mattered

He took me away from that hole

And my illusions had shattered

(Before I’d lost him

And they’d returned

I’m now here again

Forgetting what I had learned

But it’s not to late for this snow

She’ll see real value

She can still learn

And start anew)

She will awake and know what is true

She will awake if it’s for her to discover

But now I’ll rein as the fairest

Lest she find herself a true lover
