Invitation
03:51
|
|||
Come to me,
See what no one else can see
What lies within your mind
What you thought you'd never find
Beyond you wildest dreams
Enchanted forest, glistening streams
Listen to the sound of a distant flute
Music of the forest is calling you
Calling you...
Here's the place
Where distant voices can be heard
To speak and see
Unspoken word
This Magic Realm
Of Darkened Lore
Lies behind
This Enchated Door

The Sisterhood
04:07
|
|||
As I walked the path under the full moon
It was the only light upon the gloom
In this dark space I was alone
Then I came upon the Circle of Stones
It was there I spied the Women Three
Beckoning and calling me
{Chorus}
The Sisterhood welcomes you they said
Among us you can rest your head
On this promise you're not alone
By Maiden, Mother and Crone
"Who are you?" I said, "Tell me your names!
I'm not here to play your games"
They said "We promise you, we mean no harm.
We'll enlighten you with Nature's Charms"
Music of the Forest calls onto thee
With it's enchantment and beauty
{Chorus}
We will guide you through your years
See you through your hopes and fears
So I joined them in their Sacred Space
Of Purity, Enchantment and Grace
Then we linked our hands and we danced
Raised the energy in a magical trance.
{Chorus}
By Maiden, Mother and Crone...

Beltane Fire
05:47
|
|||
On this First May's Eve
The trees are thick with leaves
The Ash, the Elm, the Oak
The Land of Fertile Growth
'Round the fire we stand
Celebrate throughout the land
{Chorus}
Beltane Fire as the flames grow higher
We dance this night as the fire's burning bright
Songs and stories told
As the night unfolds
Of the Other World
Where Faeries dance and swirl
Spiraling into the sky
On silver wings as they fly
{Chorus}
The Wheel turns, the ember burns
The Dark Night's gone, the Summer's come
{Chorus}

Morrigan
06:15
|
|||
Over battle field She flies
On black wings beneath the bloodshed skies
Shrieks Her cries, their last lament
A Messenger of Death She is sent
{Chorus}
Lift your voice onto the sky
To the sound of the raven's cry
As she swoops down to feet
Of dying soldiers as they bleed
As they bleed
This shrieking cry called him forth
He bade his charioteer to ride him North
In his path a Maiden stood and She spoke
Her flawless skin beneath a long black cloak
Morrigan:
"I know you, soldier. I spied you from above.
I helped you out in battle and will continue to do so in return for your love."
Cú Chulainn:
"I will not return your love! I have better things to do.
I am too busy with combat to bed with you."
With these words a deep wrath had been awoken
"For death shall be upon you!" the Goddess has spoken
His final battle came, his day of death
He took his last, his dying breath
His face turned white, his skin grew colder
The totem of death birched upon his shoulder
{Chorus}

The Mermaid Song
08:30
|
|||
She comes from oceans deep
Where secrets and mysteries sleep
She rises from waters blue
Sits on the rock calling you
{Chorus}
Her sweet voice, her enchanting songs
Reach out for sailors who have for so long
Dreamed of a maiden as dazzling as she
Lady of Mystery, come to me
He spies her sitting there
Green eyes and golden hair
The salt water shines on her skin
Invoking the magic within
"Come, swim with me
See what lies beneath my sea"
{Chorus}
She seats on a rock and calls him near
"Come to me, be with me, my dear!"
{Chorus}
Many stories have the oceans told
The place where mystery and magic unfolds

By the Old Oak Tree
07:28
|
|||
Escaping his cruel master
He runs down ever faster
To a place beneath the glen
There were little green men
They led him away
To where wonders lay
With promises
Of a place where he could play
There he spent his days
A magic place to play
Among the Wild Fae Folk
No cruel words were spoke
"Come away, o human child
To the waters in the wild
With the faery hand in hand..."
{Chorus}
It was there in the place by the old oak tree
The winding path of mystery
It was through the enchanted door he passed
To where wonders always seem to last
Returning to his mother
Describe the land like no other
She did not believe
Such fantasies conceived
"Don't believe me, I'll prove to you
This enchanted place is true
I'll go back there
Bring a piece of this land to you"
{Chorus}
By the old oak tree
To the Land of Faery
He asked for something home to bring
This angered the Faery King
"Beyond the Enchanted door
This world exists no more
Take from us what you will
But don't expect it to still
Be the same as it is here
For the Human World is too full of fear
For they judge what they don't understand
Nothing can live outside this Land"
{Chorus}
He can't prove it to others
Not even to his mother
All he has is memories
Of his days among the Faery
What really matters is what's within
The Enchanted World is real to him

Disintegrated Beauty
05:15
|
|||
Down in the valleys where nobody goes
This is the place where the Dark River flows
Here she has been laid to rest
Blood red rose lays upon her breast
Long black hair and pale white skin
Dark red lips the color of sin
Poison blood flows in her veins
Soothes all her anger and pain
Solace in her darkest dreams
Fantasies of blood and screams
Words and actions cut so deep
Forced her to an eternal sleep
Disintegrates into nothingness
She is one with this dark abyss
Colors fade as the night draws near
Now she'll never have to fear

Sea of Serenity
05:50
|
|||
As the night begins to unfold
I'm wondering when sleep will take hold
Memories lingering from my day
A garden where children play
Laughter and sadness and joy and tears
Voices still ring in my ears
{Chorus}
I want to go, I want to be
My Deep Sea of Serenity
Alone and free in this healing place
Where my mind can go my own pace
Emotions run deep in my skin
Which come from outside and which from within?
I need to purify and reform
So I can then re-ride the storm
{Chorus}
Dear child, you can't tell me so you make me feel
And hope that somehow I might be able to heal
What's hurt you? What do you see?
Use your voice and come and tell me
My deep sea lies deep within me
Oceans of light and love for thee
But it needs to be clean, it needs to be pure
So i will not drown and I can give more
{Chorus}
