mercedes lackey - windrider unchained lyrics

Loading...

windrider, fettered, imprisoned, and pinioned
wing+clipped by magic, his power full drained;
valdemar’s heir is defeated and captive
with his companion by darklord enchained

darklord of shadows his fetters is weaving
binds him in darkness as deep as despair
mocks at his anger and laughs at his weeping:
“where is your strength now, oh valdemar’s heir?”

darklord has left them by shadows encumbered
darshay and windrider trapped in his gloom
deep in his prisons, past hope, past believing;
heir and companion, will this be your tomb?

out of the shadows another draws nearer
out of the twilight steals one furtive light
shadows dance pain, while the light sings despairing
drawn here by darshay and windrider’s plight

power new+won have the singer and dancer
power to shatter their curses at last
power that also could free the sad captives
power to break the bonds holding them fast

heart speaks to heart in the depth of the darkness;
grief calls to grief, and they falter, afraid —
why should they sacrifice all for these strangers?
then new compassion sends them on to aid
dancer in shadows, she weeps as she dances
dancing unmaking the shadow+born bands
sunsinger now through tears gives up his power
sings back the magic to windrider’s hands

spent now, the twain fall unseen into shadow
gifted to strangers all that they had gained
darklord returns, and by fear is confounded —
flees the avenger, windrider unchained!
