Mirror, mirror in my hand
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Show me the fairest in all the land
For when does pride come but before a fall
For that which is fairest is wild
And those who have followed will lead
Unproven, untested find trials
Great trees must come from a seed,
From the dusk, dawn has awoken
And jealousy pays for its sin,
For what good is it when the outer is broken,
And shine comes the light from within.
