Cat Black (the Wizard`s Hat) Lyrics

Catblack the wizard`s hat 
Spun in lore from Dagamoor 
The skull of jade was pearl inlaid 
The silks, skin spun, repelled the Sun 
A tusk of boar with dwarfish awe 
Sobs on the door where stood before 
A mountain man with sky-blue teeth 
Upon his head a python`s wreath 
A deer he slew in the dawning`s dew 
Her heart was a dagger for a murderer`s brew. 

A toad of jet on a sill cast in brass 
Portrayed for his sight mysteries of the past 
A yellow orphan dancer rich in Nature`s costly gold 
Wept for the jailer of time to bless her old 
But his kiss he held and shadowed for the spell of nights are strong 
And spiralled like a whirlwind in the childhood of a song 

Catblack the wizard`s back 
Daubed in doom in his tounge tombed room 
We of the wind must rejoice and speak 
And kiss all our starbrowed brothers on the cheek.
