Lugdunon Lyrics

Eluveitie Lugdunon

We set forth
a retinue
with steedmand cart
so we roved the land
steal thily
we sallied out
to find new shores
as the presage led

Set sail, ye hearts
into the sed of hope
the druid blessed
this mount forseen
we grudged no pains
we faced distress
yet a glowing wick
kindles fire...

Alike a liminal place
a dormant beacon we faced
the haven foretold
a fortress of ages to come

A the rise of a new dawn
woke the daughter of the sun
wafted on black wings
wastly soaring boding skies

We followed
the rites of old
as we stook out
the ordained new land
we held our breath
as the skies got black
and a storm arose
a swarm of crows

Lo land behold!
the black birds branched out
a circle wide
in the riven skies
they limned the nemeton
of the fulgent hill
the presage witnessed
