allison russell - hy-brasil lyrics

[verse 1]
my great grandmother was a magic weaver
came across the water and caught the fever
she wondered if her mother could hear her when
she said the words she learned to say

[verse 2]
down in the cradle oh i would hear hеr
as i breathed my soul beliеved if
i sang those words i could leave there
leave my sorrow and pain

[chorus]
in the blue camhanaich all shimmering still
dame calluna, low lady of the hills
cup of cold sun and a winterpill
send me back on my way
seven black rabbits of hy+brasil
twenty+one petals of daffodils
thirteenth note of the blackcap trill
i’ll fly home today
[verse 3]
though my brittle body was caught in his snare
my soul would learn how to travel where
the eyes of the rabbits were gleaming there
on the isle of hy+brasil

seven years we drown, seven years we rise
said the black rabbit with the ancient eyes
you’ll be free, oh lura lae
he cannot match your will

[verse 4]
though i drowned for ten years, i’m still rising
stronger for my pain and suffering
my body was broken but my heart’s reborn
i’m freer than the sky
[chorus]
in the blue camhanaich all shimmering still
dame calluna, low lady of the hills
cup of cold sun and a winterpill
send me back on my way
seven black rabbits of hy+brasil
twenty+one petals of daffodils
thirteenth note of the blackcap trill
i’ll fly home today
