Merlin am I

In a tower on the western shore
A woman cries in pain
Outside a storm gathers
As a soul is born again
The wisdom of all the worlds
Shines like the Sun from his eyes
His Father a God of the Earth
Holds his Mother in his arms as she dies

Merlin am I, Merlin am I
I know the secrets
Of the land and the sky
Land and the sky
And you'll hear my voice
In the eagle's cry
Merlin am I

A tower to the High King
Comes crashing to the ground
His Druids know the answer
A sacrifice is found
But the child sees deep in the Earth
Two Dragons are stretching their wings
Two tribes will fight for to claim this land
Many die for the folly of Kings

Listen little pig
Little trembling one
Under this blanket I find no repose
Since the battle of Arderydd
I no longer care
If the sky falls
Or the sea overflows

The forest is calling him
From a field soaked in blood
Where hundreds lie dying
All the people he loved
Now he runs in the shadows
And madness, the future reveals
That the Island of Britain is Merlin's Isle
And he lives here still
