His haunting song, hear it I could
I met a Fae deep in the wood
With a blade he cut the bracken
With tireless relentless hackin’
I tried to pace quietly by
A snapping twig made him my spy
And when he locked his eye on me
My heart stopped, I ceased to see
For bright light shone
From where he stood
Covered my face
With cloak and hood
Some time passed, I dared to look
I was alone but with him took
All the life within the trees
Leaving not a single leaf
I felt this as warning nigh
Pray Lady Luck you stay alive
Fail to leave the Siddhe be
A death knell rings, calamity
