I am the Faerie no‑one sees,
I am the Witch for cursing,
I am the Story nobody reads,
For nobody knows the words!
See her dancing in the Fountain‑song,
See the Lady in Green
She will lead you to a distant landAnd shadow you in your dreams:
Oh willow on the water
Could not be greener than me!
I shall be Queen of AlderbeeAnd powerful as the sea.
I’ve a Harpist in my head,
Colder than the moonlight
He will hold me to Eternit
And follow me through the sunlight!
Oh willow on the water
Could not be greener than me!
I shall be Queen of Alderbee
And powerful as the seas.
Well I’ve a tale on a cursing loom
Causing lovers to fall:
There a unicorn will break his heartFor love at Sir Malder’s Castle….
Who’ll dare to stop me, orAm I beyond your reach?
Don’t stand before a Lady,
You shall walk beside me!
