trieb (brazil) - the ballad of the white horse lyrics
i tell you naught for your relief
yea, naught for your desire,
save that the sky grows darker yet
and the sea rises high.
night shall be thrice night over you,
and heaven an iron cope.
do you have joy without a cause,
have you any faith without hope?
oh, ride all the way through the silent vale lands,
across days like deserts,
when all pride have dried
and split – the hearts of men,
heart of heroes, ride.
a sea-folk blinder than the sea
broke all about his land,
but alfred stand – up against them bare
staggered, and strove to stand.
the fires of the great army
that was made of iron men,
whose lights of sacrilege and scorn
ran around england
people, if you have any prayers,
say prayers for me:
and lay me under a christian stone
to wait till the holy horn is blown,
and all poor men are free.
the high tide! alfred cried.
the high tide and the turn!
as a tide turns on the tall grey seas,
see how they waver in the trees,
though dead are all the paladins
whom glory had in ken,
though dead your thunder-sworded thanes
with proud hearts
while a man remains, great war remains:
now is a war of men.
by god and man dishonoured,
by death and life made vain,
know the old barbarian,
he comes again–
but books be all their eating,
and ink be on their hands.
in wess-x in the forest, in the
breaking of spears,
we set a sign on guthrum
to blaze a thousand years.
we signed him with the cross
people, if you have any prayers,
say prayers for me:
and lay me under a christian stone
to wait till the holy horn is blown,
and all poor men are free.
in wess-x in the forest, in the
breaking of spears,
we set a sign on guthrum
to blaze a thousand years.
we signed him with the cross
though dead are all the paladins
whom glory had in ken,
though dead your thunder-sworded thanes
with proud hearts
while a man remains, great war remains:
now is a war of men!!!!
