How soon the mood changed
The Magi left by another route
Feared the desires of King Harold
Knowing of his inner rage

During the night an Angel comes
Tells Joseph time to ho
Take the Child and the Mother
To Egypt move for danger summons

During the night the Family leaves
While soldiers ride for slaughters deed
Gifts now used to ease the journey
Recall another prophetic duty

From Egypt the Son will be called
To come making Israel proud
With time the Child will grow
Returning as a lad well known
