I Once Was Lost
From where I originated, no one really knows
They say my earliest sound came from a hunter's bow
Ramses III has me painted in his death hall
In the New Kingdom, I was 6.5 feet tall
In the Christian church I accompanied the monks there
In 5th century Ireland, I was taught at the Papal Music School there
In the Medieval times, I was so compact
The player could fit me right in his lap
I once was lost, found in the past decades
Now the new players won't let the tradition fade
What am I?
