The Wedding Song

Lyrics

[Verse 1] By the stag of seven tines Through the forest down to the sea The lapwing circles seven times O'er the silent nest in secrecy High and low they search the weirs For the doe the whelp he fears And for the child swept ashore In the olden times [Verse 2] By the salmon in the pool Fed on hazel for the gift of sight Within the trees he hidеs the tools Madly gazing in the starless night And blеss this ordinary home Guess the gleeman fools that roam Through the dance growing hot When the barley's sown [Verse 3] By the merging of two streams One of silver and one of gold Find the merging of two dreams One is foreign and one is old And all the ancient clans unite For the sacred candle rite Place the hand in the hand For they bond tonight
