Pegasus the winged horse

Ferocious as can be

Pegasus the winged horse

Untamable is he.

Until the day Bellerophon

Tried to capture our friend

In order to fulfill a king’s request

And become Chimaera’s end.

But poor Bellerophon

At first did not succeed

Because poor Bellerophon

Couldn’t catch the winged steed.

Then the goddess Athena

Came to his aid

And gave him a magical bridle

To make the untamable tamed.

So Pegasus the winged horse,

Still ferocious as can be,

But Pegasus the winged horse,

Now tamed is he.

And then man and horse

Flew off as one

They fought the monstrous beast

And then the deed was done.

Pegasus the winged horse

Ferocious as can be

Pegasus the winged horse

An act of hubris set him free.
