Thunder Rising |
They looked out from the fortress on the hill |
There came a single warrior returning from the kill |
The spoils of war hung from his horses mane |
The bloody heads of enemies that he had freshly slayed |
They saw the face, the eyes so sullen |
Could only be the young Cúchulain |
Thunder rising, thunder rising |
Thunder rising early in the morning |
Cities burning |
The world keeps turning |
Thunder rising early in the morning |
The son of Lugh MacEithleen knew no fear |
For just one blow at any foe to tell his end was near |
So many tried to mock this Celtic son |
They taunted and they teased him till |
He slayed them one by one |
And so they came, and so they’ve fallen |
At the hands of young Cúchulain |
Thunder rising, thunder rising |
Thunder rising early in the morning |
Cities burning |
The world keeps turning |
Thunder rising early in the morning |
Long ago the legend has it |
How the mighty Ulster men |
Battled with the King Of Connacht |
Fighting to the bitter end |
No one knew what foolish reason |
Caused this skirmish to begin |
Was it treachery or treason |
Or just the idle threats of drunken men? |
Thunder rising, thunder rising |
Thunder rising early in the morning |
Cities burning |
The world keeps turning |
Thunder rising early in the morning |
Thunder rising, thunder rising |
Thunder rising early in the morning |
Young men are dying |
The widows are crying |
Thunder rising early in the morning |
