Did you see the Wood-child's gaze |
|
See the ancient fire in his eyes? |
|
Did you hear the Ax as it sang |
|
Thirsting to drink the blood of a king? |
|
Did you see it flash to and fro |
|
Glowing with a life all its own? |
|
Did you see the tyrant fall |
|
Headless in the torchlit hall? |
|
Did you see the wood child |
|
Tear the crown |
|
From the severed head |
|
Of the king? |
|
Did you see the Tyrant |
|
On a stake in the village square? |
|
Could it be the end |
|
Has come at last? |
|
Could this be the prophesy |
|
Come to pass? |
|
Back in the town they |
|
Celebrate times to come. |
|
Here in the wood we dance |
|
For the end has come. |
