The tragedy of Hamlet

(Inspired by the play by William Shakespeare)



ACT I

Once past twelve sounds a bell

'Tis bitter cold at Elsinore

Three Danes await and watch the night

For the late king Hamlet's spectral sight

It comes again in warlike form

This spirit of health beckons his son

Father, king, royal Dane?

Tell me the reason why you came

I am the spirit of the king

I walk the night and burn by day

"Till the foul crimes done in my days

Of nature are burnt and purged away"

A serpents sting took my life

Now wears my crown and wed my wife

Avenge my death, remember me

Hamlet my son, kill the king!



ACTS II and III

A noble mind overthrown

Seized with madness

Dethrone!

Somewhat deceptive

To masque his designs

The prince will reap his vengeance in time

His lady love doth think him mad

Lord Chamberlain warns

Stay away!

The actors come hither

Presenting a play

Hamlet's intentions are underway

He has caught the conscience of the king

Railed the queen

Thought Claudius slain

Instead lay dead

The fool Chamberlain

Banished; to England Hamlet is sent



ACT IV

The sails were set for their destruction

Twice fell the night their ship is attacked

Death has strayed from his path to claim sweet Ophelia

The prince now returns enraged with wrath

He falls upon innocence returning to dust

Swears he laertes, Hamlet must

Pay for all grievances put on his house

Conspiracy lingers, the duel; a trap
