Lyrics to "RING OF MAIDENS"

Words and music Lemon-Blue-Lemon 

In the ring of maidens,
One stood firm and still,
She feels the world,
From the top of the hill,
The chanting Mantra,
A mere hum in her ears,
She sees all things,
In the veil of tears
Chorus:
Ring o ring o maidens,
A pocket full of spells,
The crone awaits you,
If the stag king fails. 
Ring o ring o maidens,


The young stag king,
Eager and fresh,
Does battle for all man,
Even to the death,
A piercing scream,
Is it man or beast?
What heralds Madam?
The wake or the feast? 

Chorus
In the ring of maidens,
The dreamer perspires,
Tonight she gives all,
At the Beltane fires,
The Stag king is victor,
The old people rejoice,
The isles reunited,
In the goddess's voice. 
Chorus
