The Virgin and The Gypsi

THE VIRGIN AND THE GYPSI
(Steve Hackett)

A Gypsi compliment for (kneel down)
The scent of tyranny’s daughter (we are found)
At seventeen were bled in wild cream

Passing milk thistle by
Fox on the run
Old ragged robin flies
Virtue undone

A garland of green flower (field of time)
Surround a silver smoke tree (yours and mine)
Sweet marigold, not easy to find
Passing milk thistle by…
