Faerie Lullaby

You spotted snakes with double tongue
Thorny hedgehogs be not seen
Newts and blindworms do no wrong
Come not near our fairy queen
Come not near our fairy queen
You spotted snakes with double tongue
Thorny hedgehogs be not seen
Newts and blindworms do no wrong
Come not near our fairy queen
Come not near our fairy queen
Philomel with melody
Sing on our sweet lullaby
Lullaby lullaby lull lull la lullaby
Never harm nor spell nor charm
Come our lovely lady nigh
so good night with lullaby lullaby
Weaving spiders come not here
Hence, you long-legg’d spinners, hence
Beetles black, approach not near
Worm nor snail do no offence
Worm nor snail do no offence
Philomel with melody
Sing on our sweet lullaby
Lullaby lullaby lull lull la lullaby
Never harm nor spell nor charm
Come our lovely lady nigh
so good night with lull la bye
You spotted snakes with double tongue
Thorny hedgehogs be not seen
Newts and blindworms do no wrong
Come not near our fairy queen
Come not near our fairy queen
Philomel with melody
Sing on our sweet lullaby
Lullaby lullaby lull lull la lullaby
Never harm nor spell nor charm
Come our lovely lady nigh
so good night with lullaby

Walk The Woods

I must go and walke the woed so wild
And wander here and there
In dred and dedly fere,
For where I trust I am begild,
And all for one.
Thus am I banished for my blis
By craft and false pretens
Faultless, without offens,
As of return no certen is,
And all for fer of one
My bed shall be under the grenwod tree,
A tuft of brakes under my hed,
As one from joye were fled.
(Thus from) my lif day by day I flee
And all for fer of one

The Falcon Carol
05:58
|

|
The hern flew east the hern flew west
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
She bore her o'er the fair forest
The falcon hath born my mak away
She bore her o'er the meadows green
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
All to espy what might be seen
The falcon hath born my mak away
Oh, then she saw an orchard fair
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
Where grow'th the apple and the pear
The falcon hath born my mak away
And in that orchard stands a hall
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
Was clad all o'er with purple and pall
The falcon hath born my mak away
And in that hall there stands a bower
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
Was covered o'er with periwink flower
The falcon hath born my mak away
Beneath that bower there stands a bed
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
With silken sheets of gold so red
The falcon hath born my mak away
And in that bed that lies a knight
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
Whose wounds doth bleed both day and night
The falcon hath born my mak away
Under that bed there runs a flood
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
One half runs water, the other runs blood
The falcon hath born my mak away
By the bed side there stands a stone
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
A leal maiden was sat thereon
The falcon hath born my mak away
With silver needle and silken thread
Lully-lullay, lully-lullay
She stems the wounds where they doth bleed
The falcon hath born my mak away

All The Tiny Fires
03:59
|
|||
|
Barred from the magic by the tyranny of distance
Almost broken by this persistence
Oceans are obstacles to this existence
Seared by the flame of this burning instance
I’ll make my own magic right here
We’ll make our own magic right here
All the tiny fires shimmering in the night
All the tiny fires shimmering in the night
All the tiny fires shimmering in the night
All the tiny fires
Lost on an ocean of blissed indignation
Starlight is but one source of navigation
Succumbed to the wave flows of blind resignation
Lanterns in darkness guide illumination
All the tiny fires shimmering in the night
All the tiny fires shimmering in the night
All the tiny fires shimmering in the night
All the tiny fires shimmering in the night
All the tiny fires…

Lull
05:55
|
|||
|
Gold coin from under tongue
Delivers you at speed of gun
Time you think you have none left
But time will bind us forever yet
Like unwatered flowers
She shrivels and dies
Thinking ne'er again will she ever see her eyes
Ever see her eyes
Torn hessian you are
Cloth to wipe your mother's tears
To give the world some light
To give more than day and night
Like unwatered flowers
She shrivels and dies
Thinking ne'er again will she ever see her eyes
Ever see her eyes
Lull lull me down to the underground
Suck in a string brings you everything
Light not found by night within your sight
How can it be
I am everything
Stifled sapling shrinking from frost
They realise not the reason for their loss
But like strands of grass divided in the wind
I will return to her to correct my sin
Floating down like falling feather
Snow lands languidly upon my head
Suffer by my side
To keep earth alive
Lull lull me down...

So You Will Know
05:19
|

|
Can I take the thought from your head?
I will punch it ’til it leaves you alone
Bend it until it looks as I see it
Paint it the colour of untruths
So you will know, so you will know, so you will know
So you will know, so you will know, so you will know
Can I drop it at your feet for you to stamp on?
I will kick it down the laneway (and cover in the mud)
And it will tumble away and it will tumble away
And it will tumble and tumble and tumble away
So you will know, so you will know, so you will know
So you will know, so you will know, so you will know
And then there will be space
For your mind to break free
You are flooded by the overwhelm
All are flooded by your overwhelm

Let me share my salt with you, let me share my salt
Let me share my salt with you, let me share my salt
Are you worth your salt?
I am worth my salt
Are you worth your slat?
I am worth more than my salt
I share my lyre, my salt with you
I will share my lyre and salt with you
I come to you
with my lyre and my salt
For I must beg your advice
For I beg for my love’s life back
Hear you know her heart’s cry too?
I traded salt for secret mist
to pass the heads of three
Lyre’s veil slows breath to slumber
Mercurial glow made fire
to waltz around,
diverting keen eyes
A lyre’s note,
like fireworks,
penetrates to detain common sense
They could not call!
A whispered ear attempts persuasion by mirror of his love for her
He thinks on this
Which way to let the lever drop
Which way to let the lever drop
Which way to let the lever drop
Which way to let the lever drop…
Don’t you know which way to let it drop?
I see you love as I do
Please I beg you
Look ahead not behind
Look ahead not behind
Look ahead not behind
Look ahead not behind…
On the fulcrum of death and return from it,
On hinge of safety and sure failure
I stand
I stand
But for a moment I looked back
But for a moment I fall
Landing out of
Landing out of
salt

If Death in June covered a Steeleye Span album, this might be the result. Dark and fragile, excellent rainy-day folk. If you do listen to this all the way through on a gloomy day, make sure to go outside and run some errands.
