One More Magic Potion

Once when we were returning from a battle We got lost in a gloomy forest in the middle of the woods we saw an old house with tired minds we knocked the door very loudly Old woman opened the wooden door She asked us to come in with kind words From her pot arose a scent so weird Stunning and bitter but very summoning Bring me a magic potion it will heal my aching wounds A taste so bitter that makes my bleeding soul feel so good It will make us sing and dance in our endless feast Or it might even unleash the beast in me She filled out pints with that devils beverage And served another round with an hideous grin The world was spinning in a new light I saw everything and everyone was singing this song With nature, trolls and the spirits of the forest We are one; let our singing rise up into the stars The witch's magic drum was still beating hard When a goblin brought me a new pint and together we roared Drink and dance! People of the forest sing with us! Who wants to brawl with me? Who can shape a kantele from a pike's jaw? Like the great one once did Close your eyes Calm your mind and drift away from the pain Beyond dreams Into the depths of the cauldron Like a rain it falls And mirrors nature's healing powers Surrender this time And relief you shall find Catcher of souls hunter of spirits Grant us the final frop of the life's elixir I want to drown all my misery Into the green trolls blood And brown swamp drink Fight against diminishing time Burden of a solitary warrior's life Bring me a magic potion it will heal my aching wounds A taste so bitter that makes my bleeding soul feel so good It will make us sing and dance in our endless feast Or it might even unleash the beast in me

She came to me one morning One lonely Sunday morning Her long hair flowing In the midwinter wind I know not how she found me For in darkness I was walking And destruction lay around me From a fight I could not win Ah ah ah ... She asked me name my foe then I said the need within some men To fight and kill their brothers Without thought of love or God And I begged her give me horses To trample down my enemy So eager was my passion To devour this waste of life Ah ah ah ... But she would not think of battle that REDUCES men to animals So easy to begin And then impossible to end For she, the mother of all men had counselled me so wisely then I feared to walk alone again And asked if she would stay Ah ah ah ... Oh lady lend your hand I cried And let me rest here at your side Have faith and trust In me she said And filled my heart with life There is no strength in numbers Have no such misconception But when you need me Be assured I won't be far away Ah ah ah ... Thus having spoke she turned away And though I found no words to say I stood and watched until I saw Her black cloak disappear My labor is no easier But now I know I'm not alone I find new heart each time I think upon that windy day And if one day she comes to you Drink deeply from her words so wise Take courage from her As your prize And say hello from me Ah ah ah ...
