A Lament for Sirius

Brave and clever, loyal, true

When evil grows, by and by

The innocent are the first to die

His life was filled with terrible pain

Good friends betrayed

To their end

He sought revenge, but he in turn

Was framed for crimes and he received

A sentence he did not deserve

Twelve years he suffered, locked away

Alone in dark

Where despair reigned

But he escaped and then it seemed

He would be free

Not meant to be

They still pursued him with fervor

He had to hide

Where he would not be found

Evil and dark, Grimmauld Place

He never wanted to return

But there he had to stay alone

But then something happened so suddenly

His godson in trouble

He had to go

He bravely fought with all he had

Beyond the veil

His life did fail

Those who loved him will despair

A loyal friend

And godfather

There will never be another

Just like him

Brave, loyal, true

He deserved a second chance

To live again

For happiness

Brave and clever, innocent

When evil grows, by and by

The innocent are the first to die
