O Lady Lorde
We give to thee
Our woven hands
That braid the sea
And to your home
We sail away
Unto the waves
From light of day

We sing to you
When rest is near
Asleep we pray
That you should hear
Our voice of old
We carry home
To lie beneath
The ocean foam

In woods of green
And misty snow
We gently ride
To waters low
And once asleep
We follow streams
To silver pools
Within our dreams

These mourning songs
On this bright eve
Our heirs depart
And left to grieve
We leave the land
Not to return
This land of lure
We all shall yearn

Fire
With anvil bells and tongs
We build our city strong
Beneath
The halls that we call home
Lay our fallen brothers bone
Ride
We take to mountains yore
To friends and fiends the green lands bore
Fight
With blood beneath our brow
To safely keep the kingdom crown
Hear
The ring of flying steel
To graves below the waters wheel
See
Our pride shall never bow
For victory stands within our vow
Pledge
To silent oaths we swore
Hinder sons and daughters war
Sing
Our songs for heirs to tell
While we await them long in Hell

Her beauty mellowed the muse of keys
Each eye riveted from the bounty of thieves
Every man bowed his gun from her celeste gaze
Bewitched by the bìtch with hair of golden maize
In days where her arm was something to be feared
When each breath promised last and rightfully revered
Soon words became weapons and death did not differ
With echoes of pyre and lead forever with her
Though soon she forgot the mercy not upheld
As days no longer cared for what each hour held

The white woods walk
About the hills
To the lady of lure
Before the rills

Light gently danced within the shade
As she laid upon the leafy glade

The river rolled beneath her feet
While birds sang clear behind the leaves
Upon her crown the sun lay bare
A garland sat in braided weaves

As she rose the wind etched by
And left the hills with a silent sigh

She danced upon the waters edge
Upon leaves and flowers beneath her feet
Softly rippling with every step
With the water that brushed the wild wheat

Beneath the cold mountains of gray
And beechen woods that softly sway

Her sun weighed hair laced with gold
Fell with mantle through the ferns
And it is for her sweet loving gaze
That each known mortal yearns

The ring of iron songs
Like hammer and tongs
Speaks words of each page
With knowledge of every age
