Sad Song of the Woods

Longing, yearning / wishful, dread

Plaintive, mourning / woeful, weary

Cruel be the wind that carries this tune,

Song Clad in mourning veil.

Deaf be the ears that it falls upon,

Sorrow so overwhelming.

Forever and forever more

She'll haunt these moors

Eternally and even beyond

She'll dance in the early morning mists

In autumn, in summer, in spring

In winters chilling wind

Over moors and beyond lakes

It echoes ever mourning

In autumn, in summer, in spring

In winters chilling wind

Over moors and beyond lakes

The Sad song of the

Woods Longing, yearning / wishful, dread

Plaintive, mourning / woeful, weary

Cold be the mind and cold be the soul,

Cold as glacial waters in late autumn.

Cold be heart that carries such wounds,

She grieves, unsilent.

Forever and forever more

She'll haunt these moors

Eternally and beyond

She'll dance in the early morning mists

In autumn, in summer, in spring

In winters chilling wind

Over moors and beyond lakes

It echoes ever mourning

In autumn, in summer, in spring

In winters chilling wind

Between the seasons it echoes

The Sad song of the

Woods.
