Samhain / Beltaine
Dos canciones que me gustan mucho de esta legendaria banda inglesa advocada al paganismo. Las pongo con letra para ir caldeando el ambiente pre halloween / día de muertos.
Samhain
From the west comes old Death A-riding on the storm With hungry eyes for funeral fires To burn till the morrow's dawn For tis the night, here comes the dead Unbound from the Underworld And the children dress as the babes of Hell All the boys and all the girls And the fires shall burn And the wheel of life shall turn And the dead come back home on Samhain And in the night sky on the lunar light they fly And the dead come back home on Samhain At the Sabbat high on the funeral hill Wait the witches at the feast For the first winter's day The first winter's sun A-rising in the east For Death has come for the summertime And to take the leaves of spring Hecate, Nemesis, Dark Mother take us in And the fires shall burn [ . . . ] |
Beltaine
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 I hear the Pan Pipes playing [ . . . ] 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 |
