Are you Alice floating down through the void Or a Cheshire smiler, roguish and odd? Are you a delicate blossom alone in a gale Or a shelter to keep friends whole and hale? So many be proud to fight on your side To keep you protected against any harm Freely, they gave you allegiance forever To support you with words, with gold and with cannon Yet you stand by your own formidable strength Charge into battle while friends get your flanks They wouldn't offend you by taking your place But wish to be close to you just in case Stand on your own, aloft on strong wings Ascend past storm clouds, able and free But should ever weather ground your flight Count on friends to be by your side In joy and in sorrow and in time of blight To others you will be a guiding light A standard by which to gather in strength To rally, to dare and to carry the day
