Brays Testo

None is more proud than the stallion None is more feared than the lion None is more free than the eagle But who is more blessed than I am? I was never what you would call noble Beauty and grace I lack Only a poor beast of burden But once I bore a king upon my back Blessed am I of all creatures Blessed am I of all beasts I heard the cries of Hosanna Palm leaves were laid at my feet Tethered to a tree at the crossroad Two men appeared at my side They led me away to their master And upon my back he did ride We entered the city in triumph Every man's heart filled with joy I raised my ears at their shouting And added my own humble voice Before you would taunt me with your laughter A favor of you I would ask Remember the king that I once carried And let your mockery pass Blessed am I of all creatures Blessed am I of all beasts I heard the cries of Hosanna Palm leaves were laid at my feet None is more proud than the stallion None is more feared than the lion None is more free than the eagle But who is more blessed than I am?
