✍️ **Lyrics:**
(Verse 1)
In Camelot’s hall, when the year was new,
A knight rode forth in a verdant hue,
No mortal steel, but green of guise,
With eyes like fire, and voice like ice.
A challenge bold, with guile and jest,
To test the knights in Arthur’s crest.

(Chorus)
Oh, Green Knight of yonder wood,
Bound by oaths misunderstood,
In honor’s name, a game we play,
On New Year’s Eve, and on New Year’s Day.

(Verse 2)
Sir Gawain rose, with courage true,
To strike a blow ‘gainst emerald hue.
The axe did fall, the head was cleft,
Yet from the floor, the life was left.
The Green Knight took his head in hand,
And smiled grim, with a strange command.

(Chorus)
Oh, Green Knight of yonder wood,
Bound by oaths misunderstood,
In honor’s name, a game we play,
On New Year’s Eve, and on New Year’s Day.

(Verse 3)
To the Chapel Green, a year’s swift flight,
Gawain must seek the fated knight.
Three trials faced in a lord’s own hall,
To test the truth behind the wall.
A scarlet sash, a gift untrue,
Would mark the deed when days were due.

(Chorus)
Oh, Green Knight of yonder wood,
Bound by oaths misunderstood,
In honor’s name, a game we play,
On New Year’s Eve, and on New Year’s Day.

(Bridge)
The final blow was swift and stayed,
For Gawain’s pride the price was paid.
Yet mercy found in green disguise,
A test of man where honor lies.

(Verse 4)
The Green Knight bowed, his task complete,
A lesson learned at chivalry’s feet.
Not just the sword, but soul and will,
In virtue’s light, the heart stands still.
The game is done, the knight rides home,
To tales of Gawain carved in stone.

(Final Chorus)
Oh, Green Knight of yonder wood,
Bound by oaths misunderstood,
In honor’s name, a game we play,
On New Year’s Eve, and on New Year’s Day.
