lyrics

Do you seek,
Of my power now,
For something lost,
Or someone you've found?
By my craft,
I may show you how,
Just as I was shown by those who dwell within the wood,
The air, the earth itself,
Within the wood,
The air the earth itself,

I heal your wounds,
Of the flesh and mind,
And ease your woes,
A humble, magick art is mine,
And if you love,
I by the stars divine,
If she will truly be yours someday,
Somewhere within the fullness of time,
Within the fullness of time,

A moonlit stroll,
Upon the forest path,
Oak, ash and crow and yew,
All dear old friends of mine,
Folkloric spells,
And humble incantations,
"Low" though some say,
The higher mysteries of life and love and death are mine,
Life and love and death are all mine,
Will she ever be, truly be mine,
Someday she will be, truly be mine,

Do you see all my power now?
