ALUNAH LYRICS

1. Demeter's Grief

[Verse 1]
Lady of the harvest
Provider of the earth
Blood running through her veins
Like rivers through the land

[Verse 2]
She has a golden daughter
Who sails under the dirt
Taken from this world
By the son of Kronos yeah

[Chorus]
The Grief of Demeter yeah
The moon will swallow her
And when her daughter is free
The crop will let them be

[Verse 3]
The lady had a saviour
A man who shone white gold
Called upon his blood
To release his evil hold

[Verse 4]
A curse had bound her daughter
She ate his blackened seeds
And now she must return
To the place under parched earth

[Chorus]
The Grief of Demeter yeah
The moon will swallow her
And when her daughter is free
The crop will let them be

[Repeat chorus]

2. White Hoarhound

[Verse 1]
On the mountain growing free
The ancient leaf it waits for me
Acknowledging and shining light
I made my way into the night

[Chorus]
Oh I let my mind flow to the sea
Oh taste the White Hoarhound
As I die under the tree
Oh taste the White Hoarhound

[Verse 2]
Summer sun and bright new day
I worship from your cup in may
Don't need riches, don't need wealth
All I want is for your health

[Chorus]
Oh I let my mind flow to the sea
Oh taste the White Hoarhound
As I die under the tree
Oh taste the White Hoarhound

[Repeat verse 1 and choruses]

Sinking to the ground
The water tastes so good
Listen to the sound
Let me drown, drown, drown

4. The Offering

Oooh yeahh oooh
Oooh yeahh oooh

[Verse 1]
I wear my robes of golden black
I draw a star across her back
I dip my hand in her blood
And draw a line across the mud

[Verse 2]
I sing a song to Mother Earth
And thank her for Nature's birth
She takes my soul and buries it
And all her creatures feed from me

[Chorus 4x]
I offer myself to the Earth
My sacrifice will bring new birth
Their beauty makes my power strong
They feed from me

5. Chester Midsummer Watch Parade

[Verse 1]
They visit me in purple sunlight
The strangest glow falls on the earth
They speak to me within the hedgerow
Their native tongue speaks of the birth
The night brings a beautiful calm
The plants and the trees all drunk on the sun
I worship at our mother's altar
Tomorrow's dawn will soon begin

[Chorus]
The longest day and the shortest night
The moon sings of it's own twilight
The ancient stones frame the golden sun
Midsummer winds blow for everyone

[Verse 2]
In my dreams they come to me
And thank me for my sacrifice
I gave my body, gave my soul
To hear them singing nature's song

[Chorus 2x]
The longest day and the shortest night
The moon sings of it's own twilight
The ancient stones frame the golden sun
Midsummer winds blow for everyone

6. Oak Ritual I

I find myself climbing
From the window to the garden
When electric night falls
I feel the connection
Under nomadic stars
Walking through the fields

[Repeat]

7. Oak Ritual II

[Verse 1]
And I find myself climbing
From the window to the garden
When electric night falls
I hear calls

[Verse 2]
And I feel the connection
Way above the nomadic stars
Walking through the fields

[Chorus]
The connection to the earth
Feels electric this time
She's unbroken in my veins
The harbinger of the dawn

[Repeat verses 1 & 2 and chorus]
