Raise the Dragon Banner |
Red moons rise below in the valley of shadowed crypts |
Lunar winds take me above on feathers of black mists |
Centuries I waited for my knighthood to be passed |
With blood a sword is sealed and given to me at last |
Mighty! |
Mother! |
Goddess! |
Queen! |
Maiden and Crone |
I’ve come to seek thy blessing |
Grant me a will of stone |
Kings rule by blasphemy against the sacred shrine |
Once fruitful wombs are bleeding christian swine |
I seek the Mighty Queen of mountains, lakes, woods, plains, rivers and |
Bathe me in Thy silver light that showers from Thy pores |
For thee, oh Kerridwen, Thy land I reconquer |
And all the slaughtered traitors will be breeding nevermore |
The sight embraces me in a cold whirlwind of souls |
Visions twist and turn and magickal fire cloaks me in thick smoke |
Feathered taloned blackest creatures, they lift me into a dream |
I see the child of two royal lines that will make the druid’s sickle gleam |
again! |
The Horned One and the Virgin Goddess lay together that night |
Renewing vows which created our splendid holy isle |
What of the King Stag when the Young Stag is grown? |
I run free with the deer, quick feet on the undergrowth |
Above the trees the whisp ring, of destiny unknown |
They seek the stranger mong them, I stare into maddened eyes |
Baptised with the King’s life as blood flows where flesh met Knife |
He was in me as we feasted and we drank |
Upon that isle into spirit we all sank |
The taste and smell… real and strong of spice and wine |
As wolves upon a foal we fell, with teeth ripped out the spine! |
