01. Birth Of The Sun

Sun purifies the unfair world below,
Needs new strengths to eternally glow.
The rite gives fire new forces to burn,
And this gives birth to the Sun, in turn.

Renewed by an antique rite,
The life in black and white
Is coloured by the solar light.

Sun has an inner motion,
It seems to overrun
The igneous oceans.
Fire's devotion
To the brightest one.
Birth of the Sun!

Sun has an inner motion,
It seems to overrun
The igneous oceans.
Fire's devotion
To the brightest one.
Birth of the Sun!

Saint John bonfires in the summer solstice
Turn into real a revival auspice.

Renewed by an antique rite,
The life in black and white
Is coloured by the solar light.

Sun has an inner motion,
It seems to overrun
The igneous oceans.
Fire's devotion
to the brightest one.
Birth of the Sun!

02. The Spectres Dance

If, in the night,
You're alone and in sight
Of the Holy Company of ghosts,
You can't forget
You've incurred a debt
That must collect the Ancient Host.

You move in nonstop advance
In a dead trance,
You have no chance
As you are taken in their dance:

The spectres dance!
The spectres dance!

To hand you a cross,
A wraith comes across,
His face looks pale and yellow-eyed.
This game's perverse:
Passing on the curse,
But now you're the procession's guide.

You move in nonstop advance
In a dead trance,
You have no chance
As you are taken in their dance:

The spectres dance!
The spectres dance!
Deadly dance!
The spectres dance!

You have to dance,
March and briskly prance,
Dancing wildly all the time,
Leading the way,
You are seeking prey
Far off, some bells chime?

You move in nonstop advance
In a dead trance,
You have no chance
As you are taken in their dance:

The spectres dance!
The spectres dance!
Deadly dance!
The spectres dance!
The Ancient Host!

03. Crossing Through Your Heart

Melodies, they call rock and roll,
You catch the metric feet;
Harmonies, we build with our soul,
You vibrate with the beat.

Keep on with us feeling rock inside,
And you will feel it's crossing through your heart

Feeling deep the rhythm from the start,
Knowing that the emotion's the best part,
Swinging while you're feeling the music in your heart.

Lyrics create the background,
Turning prose into verse,
With the sound, all around
You will find a different universe.

Keep on with us feeling rock inside,
And let it flow right through your heart

Feeling deep the rhythm from the start,
Knowing that the emotion's the best part,
Swinging while you're feeling the music in your heart.

Feeling rock inside, whenever,
singin' loud with pride, together
From the stage we can take our music to your heart!

Keep on with us feeling rock inside,
And you will feel I'ts crossing through your heart,

Feeling deep the rhythm from the start,
Knowing that the emotion's the best part,
Swinging while you're feeling the music in your heart.

Feeling rock inside, whenever,
singin' loud with pride, together
From the stage we can take our music to your heart!

Crossing through your heart!

04. Raggle Taggle Gypsy

There were three old gypsies came to our hall door
They came brave and boldly-o
And one sang high and the other sang low
And the other sang a raggle taggle gypsy-o

It was upstairs downstairs the lady went
Put on her suit of leather-o
And there was a cry from around the door
She's away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o

It was late that night when the Lord came in
Enquiring for his lady-o
And the servant girl she said to the Lord
"She's away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o"

"Then saddle for me my milk white steed
- my big horse is not speedy-o
And I will ride till I seek my bride
She's away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o"

Now he rode East and he rode West
He rode North and South also
Until he came to a wide open plain
It was there that he spied his lady-o

"How could you leave your goose feather bed
Your blankeys strewn so comely-o?
And how could you leave your newly wedded Lord
All for a raggle taggle gypsy-o?"

"What care I for my goose feather bed
Wi' blankets strewn so comely-o?
Tonight I lie in a wide open field
In the arms of a raggle taggle gypsy-o"

"How could you leave your house and your land?
How could you leave your money-o?
How could you leave your only wedded Lord
All for a raggle taggle gypsy-o?"

"What care I for my house and my land?
What care I for my money-o?
I'd rather have a kiss from the yellow gypsy's lips
I'm away wi' the raggle taggle gypsy-o!"

05. In The Middle Of The Night

Tonight, I dream and recall again
A lost past night which comes to my brain,
It was the night of my first romance,
When, at first glance, I fell into a trance.

So I dream, in the middle of the night,
Of one night that brought delight
When my wished love came true.

So I dream, in the middle of the night
Of your eyes so clear and bright
Telling me about you.

In the middle of the night.
In the middle of the night.

The look of your eyes
Made me feel a shock,
With a new surprise
That stopped the clock.

The sound of your voice
Was such a thrill,
Flesh and soul rejoice
While the night was still.

So I dream, in the middle of the night,
Of one night that brought delight
When my wished love came true.

So I dream, in the middle of the night
Of your eyes so clear and bright
Telling me about you.

In the middle of the night.

06. And For Ever

What's mundane is born to have an end,
And I have not yet more time to spend

Has come the time to mix with the ground,
Has come the time to leave all around,
While my spirit the mountains must ascend.

But don´t cry more for me,
Part of mountains, I shall be
And my soul will keep walking on the hills.

But don´t cry, nevermore,
The real way is just before,
And my soul will keep walking on the hills.

And for ever!

Now, inside me, is peace and still;
It means the same to spirit: heat and chill,

Has come the time to flee from the crowds,
Has come the time to be near the clouds
While my spirit is crowning a big hill.

But don´t cry more for me,
Part of mountains, I shall be
And my soul will keep walking on the hills.

But don´t cry, nevermore
The real way is just before,
And my soul will keep walking on the hills.

And for ever!

07. Druidic Creed

Nothing can remain
Nothing comes again
Nothing's out of the time course

Nature is the clue
To understand anew
What's the aim of the life force

Life is ever growing
Life is ever flowing
Life's like the advance of a seed

This sense of life's the druidic creed

Fighting hard the evil and the obscure,
Seeking for the just means to endure
Knowing all is such compact as fluid, as fluid?

Joining forces with what's right and pure
Helping the frail nature to perdure
These are the main duties of a druid, a druid?

Life is just a fight;
Darkness versus light
Searching for the final truth.

Everything has soul
Cycling is the goal,
Life is always in its youth.

Life is ever drifting
Life is ever shifting
Life's like the advance of a seed

This sense of life's the druidic creed

Fighting hard the evil and the obscure,
Seeking for the just means to endure
Knowing all is such compact as fluid, as fluid?

Joining forces with what's right and pure
Helping the frail nature to perdure
These are the main duties of a druid, a druid?

08. Iseult

I was sent, me, a true and loyal knight,
To perform a hero's task,
But we drank together, overnight,
Your love potion flask.

The immediate infatuation
Makes me know that dreams come true,
It's fruit of predestination
My love for you.

Love's remained, worn off the charm,
We don't mind, for love or doom,
While our heart survive the endless harm,
Love will ever bloom

The immediate infatuation
Makes me know that dreams come true,
It's fruit of predestination
My love for you.

The immediate infatuation
Makes me know that dreams come true,
It's fruit of predestination
My love for you.

09. Mazy

I can't make out
The object of your doubt,
When love is plain,
All queries are in vain.

Who can decide
Which is the Moon's dark side?
Who can stop the tide?

When love comes out
Nobody thinks about
But everyone can't live without.

So, wipe your tears
And put aside your fears,
Love knows not frontiers?

You are so mazy!
You are so mazy!
Mazy!
You are so mazy!

Crazy!
I am so crazy!
Crazy!
You are so mazy!

Don't hesitate,
You also need a mate,
And there's no reason, now, to wait.

So, wipe your tears
And put aside your fears,
Happiness is near?

You are so mazy!
You are so mazy!
Mazy!
You are so mazy!

Crazy!
I am so crazy!
Crazy!
You are so mazy!

Love is a choice,
Take it in time and rejoice;
Don't make a mess,
Only say: "yes!"
You are so mazy

Love is a choice.

You are so mazy!
You are so mazy!
Mazy!
You are so mazy!

Crazy!
I am so crazy!
Crazy!
You are so mazy!

10. Holy Geometry

The Universe chants a spiral song
Dealing with what is right or wrong.
Labyrinth of geometric shape,
We can't chance on a trusty escape.

Life trees and solar loopings,
The wheel of human Fate,
Ttightly, a knot is grouping
Some crosses at the end's gate.

Holy Geometry!

Helical carvings on the rock,
Cryptical scriptings on a block.
Graphic sketches of what's high
Outline, beneath, the heart of sky.

Destiny's ruled by natural codes
Settling the proper acting modes
Geometry holds the cosmic law
That Celts desings patterns draw

11. Green Lullaby

When the night drops its cloak
Sings my voice mild and mellow,
Comes to me from our folk,
An offhand cradle song.

When the day must depart,
Is the night your playfellow,
Like a dog is my heart
And with you runs along

When the stars in the sky
Set their shrine in your cradle,
Wordless dreams may fly high
With my green lullaby

Your fair face fills my mind
And removes pain and sorrow,
The distress rests behind
Standing you by my side.

Enjoy your sweetest dreams,
Don't be afraid of tomorrow,
In the night, your smile gleams
And its shines, my way, guide.

When the stars in the sky
Set their shrine in your cradle,
Wordless dreams may fly high
With my green lullaby
