The Curse Of Macha

©2000

I
will marry you my love
though I'm not of your kind
Our love's a force much stronger than kin or blood can bind
But my secrets I must keep, my secrets with you sleep
And I'll run with the speed of rabbits feet
Run like a deer through the forest deep
And leave the wind behind
Standing
in the field of kings wild horses I must race
Betrayed by the the boasts of the one I love he turns his sorry face
As the croud starts to ignite
To my twin sons I give my life
A curse on the men of Ulster all
A woman's pain will on you fall
away your powers bleed in your greatest hour of need
Watching
you , eyes in the shadows
Part of you, the breath in your lungs
Touching you through the mist in the moonlight
The strongest man surcomes to the curse of Macha
