"The Last Ride" This is our monument to fallen warriors Whose blood is drenched across the land So cold they sleep beneath their stones Away from light of sun, stars and moon Never to wake for their sins to atone Until the Sun fails and the Moon is dead Until their lord chooses to move his hand Lifting them from dead seas and withered land. Awaken now, and ride Toward what's forgotten What's left behind Awaken tonight, and bid the stars farewell Breathe the night Ride, ride, ride, the last ride Beneath a starlit sky Out from the place you died Ride...beyond the light Out of darkness Out of night! The mist is gathering above the barrows The horns, they beckon upon the winds Farewell the mounds in which you slumber’d Release the anguish, tis’ time to attune Release your treasures, be not encumber’d Your lord has chosen to lift his hand Redeeming you from dead seas and withered land. |
