Lyrics:


From the snow capped mountains on the westward side
a bard and his lady came travelling
through the valley I watched them ride
along the path they'd been following
into the the realms where the ancients dwell
down deep into the shadowing
and waited till the wind lay still
and for the call of the Gathering

Nuada of the silver arm
your magic sword is true and keen
gather the people to your side
between sea and sand the war will be
take the North wind at your back
let your druids set their powers free
and banish the seagods from your shore
to sail upon the eternal sea

Chorus
And from the four cities of the northern lands
came four talismen to the De Dannna's hands
and against the seagods made their stand
and won the heart of Ireland

And with the shadow of the night
came Balor of the evil eye
and along his dreaded armies marched
to stand between the sea and sky
but shining Lugh, his spear he threw
enough to make the Seagod scream
and killed Balor of the evil eye
as fortold in the druid's prophecy

The father of the God's stands near
with a wondrous cauldron in his hands
to fee De Dannan's fighting men
and all who dwell within these green lands
you'll never hunger, you'll never thirst
you will never want for more to give you strength
to send the evil ones from Ireland's shore

The stone of Fal I watched them lay
deep in the soil of Tara
a magick stone, a stones that screams
when the rightful king stands upon her
accept your fate De Dannan Kings
the stone from whence your kingship came
as Danu guides you through all time
to the light of her eternal flame
