Centuries ago and far away.

In the land of the Viking people.

Lived a king, a queen, and a Princess.

In a castle with a big, round steeple.

This Princess came to be well-known.

Throughout the Viking land.

Because she had a special gift.

Which was so very grand.

All said, she was a lovely girl.

With long and braided hair.

And that her eyes changed color.

Now that was very rare.

The Princess had a power.

It's told in olden lore.

What ever place the Princess was.

There never was a war.

To all, this was a mystery.

How just one little girl.

Could bring about such peacefulness.

Throughout all of their world.

They said it was the strangest thing.

That when all saw her face.

She had a special sweetness.

And always so much grace.

The Viking Princess was so kind.

To everyone she met.

And never said, not one mean word.

And that was her secret.

Whenever someone threatened war.

Between two different lands.

They visited the Princess.

Soon both were shaking hands.

So in the Viking Kingdom.

They shared tranquility.

Because the Viking Princess.

Brought joy and harmony.
