Lyrics

[Verse 1] My great grandmother was a magic weaver Came across the water and caught the fever She wondered if her mother could hear her when She said the words she learned to say [Chorus] In the blue camhanaich all shimmering still Dame Calluna, low Lady of the Hills Cup of cold sun and a winterpill Send me back on my way Seven black rabbits of Hy-Brasil Twenty-one petals of daffodils Thirteenth note of the blackcap trill I'll fly home today [Verse 2] Down in the cradle oh I would hear hеr As I breathed my soul beliеved if I sang those words I could leave there Leave my sorrow and pain [Chorus] In the blue camhanaich all shimmering still Dame Calluna, low Lady of the Hills Cup of cold sun and a winterpill Send me back on my way Seven black rabbits of Hy-Brasil Twenty-one petals of daffodils Thirteenth note of the blackcap trill I'll fly home today [Verse 3] Though my brittle body was caught in his snare My soul would learn how to travel where The eyes of the rabbits were gleaming there On the isle of Hy-Brasil Seven years we drown, seven years we rise Said the black rabbit with the ancient eyes You'll be free, oh lura lae He cannot match your will [Chorus] In the blue camhanaich all shimmering still Dame Calluna, low Lady of the Hills Cup of cold sun and a winterpill Send me back on my way Seven black rabbits of Hy-Brasil Twenty-one petals of daffodils Thirteenth note of the blackcap trill I'll fly home today [Verse 4] Though I drowned for ten years, I'm still rising Stronger for my pain and suffering My body was broken but my heart's reborn I'm freer than the sky [Chorus] In the blue camhanaich all shimmering still Dame Calluna, low Lady of the Hills Cup of cold sun and a winterpill Send me back on my way Seven black rabbits of Hy-Brasil Twenty-one petals of daffodils Thirteenth note of the blackcap trill I'll fly home today
