Blooded to the battle Born to the fight Sowed in the soul Thrill of the fight Taking no prisoners To die for a cause Honour and glory To win without loss Prowess and power Stealth and speed Practice of combat Take pain without heed Boundless endurance Man without peer Natural instincts Stay alive through it all The world was young The laws were true To kill or be killed The Laws of the Land These men were proud And true to their word Not modern day cowards Who kill in cold blood

A brooch upon his ample chest Bedecked in simple splendour Glistening fear upon his brow His mouth as dry as bone Sharpened sword his father bore Strapped to his side so proud Virgin blood enters the fray Onward to fatal embrace And with a sound like the heavens bursting asunder Shield upon shield Blade upon blade Flash of spear Lifeblood flowing And in the midst of it all Pungent stench of fear With veins afire I will kill With veins afire I will maim With veins afire I exalt in the letting of blood With veins afire I revel in the crimson spray The heart knows how it feels to beat wings like a bee Darkening mists which make it much easier to see Nothing can halt the dance while he is in motion To overcome tastes to him sweeter than any potion Glistening scarlet globules leaving tralis upon the air Savage and unyielding, maim and overcome Grisly sense of satisfaction, my dark side reigns.

O'er the seven hills of Macha In an age now passed by Lived a people once forgotten Beneath an ancient sky For protection they had warriors Unsurpassed on Eireann's shore Warriors of the Craobh Rua An eternal name in lore The Rí he Dwelt at Emain Ard-Rí of Ulaidh's Land The people they had Plenty Under Ard-Rí's Mighty Hand Cruinneach in your arrogance And boastfulness and pride Evoking a curse Upon your own kind Curse of a woman! Due to man's boastfulness And the follyness of man Man, may yet pay due A curse I place on you A curse I place on you A weakness like a woman near her time Once in every cycle, Ulaidh's strength Will fail to shine, fail, fail to shine Man may yet pay due A curse I place on you A curse I place on, curse I place on you But in Ulaidh's hour of need Mighty Lugh did pay heed He begot a son at Brú na Bóinne Under a sign of great tragedy Setanta as a boy, as a boy, as a boy Cú Chulainn, as a man, as a man, as a man Standing alone against Connaught's might One against all, the eternal fight Champions they came Champions they did fall Standing alone Cú chulainn, slew them all! For the pride of Emain Macha, Emain Macha, Emain Macha For the pride of Emain Macha, Emain Macha, Emain Macha For the pride of Emain Macha, Emain Macha, Emain Macha Pride of Emain Macha That special seat of power

Drift back to an era now gone Kindred spirits fought to overcome Druids held sway over kings And the thrill of the hunt prevailed People were one with the land And harmony reigned in the cycle of life I too am of the earth Celtic fire burns in my veins I too am a warrior born I fight the pain and misery My Ancestors Light my Path My spirit, forever flys free Almost any path is secret Until you've travelled it yourself Universal powers abound Try to choose the right path A stairway to a higher plain Live for this world and the next The standing stones The stone circles A life so complex Yet so simple Once upon an era I enter the fray ungrieving In my heart of hearts believing That the path of many futures I will await Stoicly Enduring the endless knot My belief will see me through Celtic fire!! Warrior born!!

As the dark clouds they do gather I sing my last lament For the ravens they do gather My strength is almost spent My life force it disperses My blood lies in the sand The Darkness now Descends My Death is Close at Hand My Death is Close at Hand The Gae Bolga, my companion I have put my trust in thee But the darkness of the grave Claims us all, eventually I bid farewell to my loved ones They and my kinsmen, please remember me Through sacred Lugh, my father My name will never die The deeds I have achieved Insures my name amongst my brothers Throughout the sacred green of Éireann My name will echo in the valleys Cú Chulainn Hound of Ulster Cú Chulainn Bane of Medhabh Cú Chulainn Hound of Ulster Cú Chulainn Champion of men Son of an immortal Immortal he shall be Journey to the otherworld To live eternally From Emain Macha To Tara's hall Your name will live as legend And to your memory I give a toast Dwell with the fairy host A farewell to a hero Your mortal days are gone Your soul now doth fly As free as the sun

Tonight we feast O brothers of my clan Tonight we feast O brothers of my blade Let there be drinking Eating of flesh Let there be boasting Tales to be heard Let there be gloating Counting of heads Raise a toast To Victory! Adorned with our sacred woad Armed with our keen edged swords Scream aloud our battle cry Bua nó bás!! Bua nó bás!! See our enemies tremble with fear Bua nó bás!! Bua nó bás!! Scream aloud our battle cry Bua nó bás!! Bua nó bás!! See our enemies tremble with fear Bua nó bás!! Bua nó bás!! Our foes are vanquished Time to make merry Raise your alehorns And hear the toast On the battlefield Our comrades our lying Dedicate our victory To their memory

A mystery around me Emanating from the land Only true kindred spirits May even hope to understand A voice I hear which is calling out to me A message all around when my mind is free Speaking in whispers thrown from the wind Out from my surroundings calling out to me Daunted by the canopy of green A blaze of blue and emerald fire A finer sight I've rarely seen And I dine on awe alone Swirling shadows Dance upon the water still And sky and cloud vie for prominence On the surface calm A lone deed Creating ripples alike waves And all along the surface Now consequence in journey I breathe - I feel my lungs I breathe - I feel my soul I breathe - I feel alive I am alive! Green surrounds me The wind in my hair Fast flowing waters The hills and the vales Ignited by passion Most purest by far My life I now fashion I live for his hour Free to live Free to roam Free to think Free as the wind Elation I peel So hard to comprehend As i stand alone Upon Anú's land I have come home I have been found The way it once was Is as it shall be
