Watch Ed Sheeran's Game of Thrones scene

Ed Sheeran's highly-anticipated appearance on Game of Thrones came during the HBO show's season seven premiere Sunday.

The 26-year-old singer was well-cast on the program, as the script called for him to do what he's most famous for: singing.

The Thinking Out Loud artist appeared onscreen in a sequence in which Arya, played by Maisie Williams, rode horseback through a forest.

He sang the lyrics (taken from the George R.R. Martin book A Dance with Dragons): 

'He rode through the streets of the city / Down from his hill on high / O’er the winds and the steps and the cobbles / He rode to a woman’s sigh / For she was his secret treasure / She was his shame and his bliss / And a chain and a keep are nothing / Compared to a woman’s kiss / For hands of gold are always cold / But a woman’s hands are warm.'

Arya told Ed's character, 'It’s a pretty song, I’ve never heard it before,' to which he responded, 'It’s a new one.'
