Pagan Drums
Lyrics

Far from the empty darkness, one candle silent still,
Comes the sound of pagan drums, down from the meadowed stony hill,

Through the misty forest deep, two candles move so sure,
Calls the sounds of pagan drums, across the magic starry moor,

Round our hill, dear, moonlight hill, moonlight hill, dear, moonlight hill,

Cast the shadows far away, toss secrets on the breeze,
To the sounds of pagan drums, through hidden glens and acorn trees,
Light the balefire one by one, till thirteen turns be through,
With the sounds of pagan drums, the morning star will shine anew,

High upon the tallest stone, the raven waits alone,
Slows the sounds of pagan drums, to circle round the standing stones,

Far from the empty darkness, one candle silent still,
Ends the sounds of pagan drums, down from the meadowed stony hill.
