Waylander - A Hero's Lament Lyrics
As the dark clouds they do gatherI sing my last lamentFor the ravens they do gatherMy strength is almost spentMy life force it dispersesMy blood lies in the sandThe Darkness now DescendsMy Death is Close at HandMy Death is Close at HandThe Gae Bolga, my companionI have put my trust in theeBut the darkness of the graveClaims us all, eventuallyI bid farewell to my loved onesThey and my kinsmen, please remember meThrough sacred Lugh, my fatherMy name will never dieThe deeds I have achievedInsures my name amongst my brothersThroughout the sacred green of ÉireannMy name will echo in the valleysCú Chulainn Hound of UlsterCú Chulainn Bane of MedhabhCú Chulainn Hound of UlsterCú Chulainn Champion of menSon of an immortalImmortal he shall beJourney to the otherworldTo live eternallyFrom Emain MachaTo Tara's hallYour name will live as legendAnd to your memoryI give a toastDwell with the fairy hostA farewell to a heroYour mortal days are goneYour soul now doth flyAs free as the sun
