Buster Cornelius

Buster Cornelius was an honest man but he ruled his people with an iron hand

Buster Cornelius was a regular Joe but if you did him wrong, he'd let you know

Buster Cornelius was fine and upstanding but to his people he was hard and demanding

He was always brave and never cruel but don't ever mistake him for a fool

Buster Cornelius stood four feet four but to his people he was ten feet tall

Whether in battle or at the sacred altar, he led them truly and never faltered

Buster Cornelius died at home

They say his age was forty-one

They carried him out of his modest room and laid his body in a marble tomb

As heroes go, he was the best

Head and shoulders above the rest

And that's why on the third of May, we celebrate Buster Cornelius Day

Buster Cornelius era um cara honesto, mas governava seu povo com mão de ferro

Buster Cornelius era um cara comum, mas se você o prejudicasse, ele ia te mostrar

Buster Cornelius era respeitado e íntegro, mas para seu povo ele era duro e exigente

Ele era sempre corajoso e nunca cruel, mas não confunda ele com um idiota

Buster Cornelius tinha um metro e trinta e pouco, mas para seu povo ele era gigante

Seja na batalha ou no altar sagrado, ele os guiava com firmeza e nunca vacilava

Buster Cornelius morreu em casa

Dizem que ele tinha quarenta e um anos

Carregaram ele para fora do seu quarto simples e colocaram seu corpo em um túmulo de mármore

Como heróis, ele foi o melhor

Acima de todos os outros

E é por isso que no dia três de maio, celebramos o Dia de Buster Cornelius
