An Ancient Fire Burns

Goddess of war, serpent of doom
Destroying all who encounter you
But there is one who you won't kill
There is one whose blood won't spill

Seeker of souls, taker of heads
I watch you conjure war among men
I will strike each form you take
Till you return to me and seal my fate

For one last glory I will prevail
The Morrigan, she calls out my name

Guarding the borders of my homeland
I slay the warriors of Cruachan
With bravery and battle rage
I kill them all in my domain

She appears to me before my eyes
Baying for blood in each disguise
Tell me now, how does it end?
Whisper to me, prophetess of death

A maiden wept as I came to the ford
With bloodied shield and broken sword
I could see they were my own
She stood lamenting this fallen soul

She disappeared from my sight
I knew I would not return from this fight
A black crow waits before I die
As I depart she'll watch my spirit fly
