I am Grandfather's cane, ever near,
A guardian shadow, banishing fear.
I know not the cause of his sudden ire,
Why a frown now, where joy did transpire.
I've trailed him for ages, I swear.
I am Grandfather's cane, ever near.

If cane could build castles in the air,
If cane could unite, beyond all compare,
If cane possessed wisdom, a guiding hand,
To lift him when he falters on the land,
No longer a child, I now declare,
I am Grandfather's cane, ever near.
Sixteen, seventeen, a cane of renown,
To drive all foes from our hallowed town.

Though seasons will pass, and youth takes flight,
The cane is his solace in fading light.
Should the cane break, a sorrowful plight,
A twist of fate, a vanishing light.
A bridge between breaths, I am here.
I am Grandfather's cane, ever near.
I am Grandfather's cane, ever near,
I know not the cause of his sudden ire,
Why a frown now, where joy did transpire.
I've trailed him for ages, I swear.
I am Grandfather's cane, ever near.
