In the depths of the night,
A knight astride a white horse emerges.

He is driven by purpose,
To rescue those consumed by despair.

He moves swiftly through the untamed forest,
Accompanied by the forceful gusts of wind. 
Venturing into the shrouded darkness,

He forges ahead,
Driven by a blend of bravery
And enduring vigor throughout his journey.

Valiantly, he advances towards distant rivals, 
His pursuit of righteousness propels him to remote lands.

The knight, clad in gleaming armor, stands resolute,
Upholding honor through strength and moral fortitude.
Never yielding nor giving up hope,
Traversing through flames and rivers, they boldly go.

With a heart whole of bravery, belief, and strength,
Rescuing the helpless, he will not falter.

He is a hero, steadfast and bold,
Venturing through the night, his spirit remains untold.

The knight atop the white horse  will never fail,
To save us from despair, his mission always leads.
