Beltaine Lyrics

Beltaine lyrics

Underneath the neolithic sky 

Where the beasts are so proud to die 

Across the sea of a million dreams 

Where nothing is as it once seemed 

I hear the Pan Pipes playing 

In what the wind is saying 

Here comes the fallen angel 

Here comes the long-dead god 

Back from the years in exile 

Here comes the wild Pagan heart 

And the May Queen sings her song 

For her consort who is gone 

Children mourn the loss of Pan 

Whom Death banished from this land 

It has been two thousand years 

The earth is soaked with blood and tears 

The once-great Lord of the Hunt lies slain 

His bride's a-burning in the flame 

Mother Earth lies raped and poisoned 

The final day draws ever closer 

To a time of ice and fire 

She shall be a funeral pyre
