Mabon Prophesy
by Blayze and Jo Dunster

I saw a maiden riding by
With a sickle moon upon her thigh
She turned to say “Come follow me”
If you would seek a prophecy

So followed I the maiden bold
To see what was to be foretold
We travelled under pale moonlight
Across the field of poppies bright

CHORUS
To know me, to dare me
To brave the field of corn
You must cross the western sea
When your time has come to mourn

To know me, to dare me
To will what is to come
You must cross the western sea
At the setting of the sun

We came to a darkened salmon weir
The maiden and the budding seer
As a nut of gold fell to my eye
I saw a vision passing by

Of steel and sword, of day and night
Of battles old and a bloody fight
My eyes did weep, my heart did break
As I watched in sorrow, my lover's fate

CHORUS

To die a seer is my reward
Fate is marked by the bloodied sword
As the fearsome fields of golden hue
Call once more for their yearly due

And so I journey to the west
As I send my love to the Night Queen's breast
I cannot change what fate decides
For my love is borne on the Autumn tides

CHORUS
