《Ossian’s Return》歌词

[00:00:00] Ossian's Return - Cruachan

[00:00:25] The sky was grey and leaden

[00:00:28] Wolves howling on the wind

[00:00:32] Above the land of the teenno

[00:00:35] The ancient calm still reigned

[00:00:38] "I long to stand on my home shore"

[00:00:41] Said Ossian in a glare

[00:00:44] "But Ossian love this is your home"

[00:00:48] Said Niamh of the golden hair

[00:00:51] She seen the look upon his face

[00:00:54] She knew the pain he felt

[00:00:57] He longed to be home among his race

[00:01:00] With his ring-sword strapped to his belt

[00:01:04] "Return my love to the land of man

[00:01:07] But be warned time rests heavily there

[00:01:10] Come back to me if ever you can

[00:01:13] Back to the land of the fair "

[00:01:42] "Do not dismount from the steed you ride

[00:01:43] From this world it belongs

[00:01:45] If you dismount you shall fall by It's side

[00:01:47] To be remembered only in faerie songs"

[00:01:49] He galloped across the faerie seas

[00:01:50] Back to the land of man

[00:01:52] Watched by the Gods and the Daoine Sdhe

[00:01:53] His life to end as it began

[00:01:55] "I have returned" he said aloud

[00:01:57] But no one was there to hear

[00:01:58] His noble home once bold and proud

[00:02:00] Had crumbled through the many years

[00:02:01] A power had come into the land

[00:02:03] To threaten the olden ways

[00:02:04] The people ignore the ancient Gods

[00:02:06] They bid farewell to a golden age

[00:02:46] Ossian stopped his gallant steed

[00:02:49] He could see some people ahead

[00:02:52] "Help us please our brother are trapped-

[00:02:56] Beneath this dolmen" they said

[00:02:59] He leaned down from his mount

[00:03:02] And gripped the dolmen firm

[00:03:05] From the earth the rocks was freed

[00:03:08] The people beneath unharmed

[00:03:12] But from the strain his saddle broke

[00:03:15] To the earth he was cast

[00:03:18] A cry of pain burst from his throat

[00:03:21] The years now caught him at last

[00:03:25] In Tr Na n-g Niamh shed a tear

[00:03:28] When she saw the rider-less horse

[00:03:31] Ossian was gone her greatest fear

[00:03:34] Her heart was full of deep remorse
