The palaces and castles enchants you, your gaze
pauses, you'll be amazed in no time.
No knight found fame and happiness there,
no castle ghost frightened with murmurs.
It did not serve any royal child.
The ballroom and the princely rooms,
they are missing, even the servants,
the battlements and the shimmer of lusters.
The locksmith's art and expertise
do you admire the door fittings,
the house's protection, the iron band
to yes and no for your ways.
