Achilles,
Greates fighter of the Trojan war,
Achilles,
Armor shining gold in the beating sun,
Achilles,
Loved by all the gods,
Achilles,
Always unable to die,
Achilles,
Killed Hector,
Prince of Troy,
Achilles,
Unable to die,
Achilles,
Feared for his fighting action,
Achilles,
Revenge sought,
Sought for the death of his cousin,
Sought and taken with glory,
Achilles,
Fighter for Agememnom,
Fighting to take Helen back,
From Paris,
Pince of Troy,
Achilles,
Always heard,
Never seen,
Achilles,
Who can only die,
If shot in the Achilles heel,
Achilles
Loved by Zeus,
Commander of the gods,
Achilles,
Forever the greatest fighter.
