From the land, the blood arose, becoming flesh and bone
And then on came the family, the building of a home
The land was their religion, from its earth they came
Its trees and fields and rivers, were their eternal flame
(chorus)
Then came the foul invasion
And the night came rolling black
And a strength that was born long ago
Held those invaders back
The dark lord came forth with his men, to pillage in the glen
Their faces grim, with scarlet flags, they came about men
The evil grew within their hearts, this was an alien creed
Their wishes were to loot and burn, and see the people bleed
(chorus)
instrumental break
